Author(s): Ngwu Tochukwu Ambrose*, Konstantin V Fedin, Lucky more Ngomayezwe and Ekolle Ndinde Eya
Studies show that in the Norilsk region, about 250 buildings were damaged due to the deterioration of permafrost conditions over the last decade due to warming temperature regimes, which significantly effects the natural vibration characteristics of structures found in this area. The investigation of the influence of thermal conditions on pile stability was carried out between 21st August to 25th October 2021, using peak frequencies of seismo-acoustic noises to evaluate proper oscillations of building piles and comparing the compiled peak frequencies with average temperature of the corresponding time windows. The results from graphical illustration shows that temperature fluctuations result in little to significant adjustments in peak frequency values. The period between 11th to 14th October illustrated the most intriguing outcomes as the hi.. View More»
