This book combines the author’s years of research results to discuss the thermal consolidation mechanism and analytical solution methods of soils, and establishes the corresponding theoretical models. This work contributes to a profound understanding of the physical nature of granular thermodynamics of particulate matters and has important application values in geothermal resource development, thermal energy storage, nuclear waste disposal, and other fields. This book consists of seven cha...

This book presents a detailed study of the thermal consolidation behavior of saturated clay from experimental and theoretical aspects, analyzes the thermal consolidation response of saturated clay under the influence of different drainage conditions, confining pressures, temperature paths, and over-consolidation ratios, and carries out theoretical modelling of thermal consolidation based on thermoelasticity theory. The study of thermodynamic properties of clayey soils under temperature loa...
