Ice-driven mechanical weathering in cold regions is considered a main factor impacting the stability of rock mass. In this work, the response surface method (RSM) was employed to evaluate and optimize the multiple frost heaving parameters to seek the maximum frost heaving force (FHF), in combination with experimental modeling based on a specially designed frost heaving force measurement system. Three kinds of rocks were prepared with parallel flaws in it having different flaw width, length, and cementation type, and these factors were used to fit an optimal response of the maximum FHF. The experimental results reveal five distinguished stages from the frost heaving force curve, and they are inoculation stage, explosive stage, decline to steady stage, recovery stage, and sudden drop stage. The sensitivity analysis reveals the influential order of the considered factors to peak FHF, which is the rock lithology, flaw width, flaw cement type, and flaw length. For low-porosity hard rock, increasing flaw width, flaw length, and flaw cement strength can improve the probability of frost heaving failure. It is suggested that rock lithology determines the water migration ability and influences the water-ice phase transformation a lot.

This work is aimed at investigating the structural deterioration and the frost heaving force evolution characteristics of flawed rocks using a self-developed frost heaving force (FHF) measurement system. Three kinds of preflawed rocks with different flaw geometry parameters were used to conduct the FHF measurement tests. The testing results reveal five distinguished stages from the frost heaving force evolution curve; they are the inoculation stage, explosive stage, decline to steady stage, recovery stage, and sudden drop stage. In addition, a secondary frost heaving phenomenon is found, and the secondary peak value is lower than the initial peak value. Moreover, the FHF decreases with increasing the F-T cycle number, and its decreasing rate becomes faster at a high F-T cycle. The frost heaving force is affected not only by flaw geometry but also by the lithology. For low-pore hard rock, damage propagates quickly after the occurrence of freeze-thaw damage. It is suggested that the mesoscopic structure of rock affects the water migration and water-ice phase transformation, and rock can be fractured by FHF in the preexisting flaws.

Force Measurement System

According to the requirements of measurement of plantar pressure and shear stress in the meantime, this thesis puts forward a plan to construct a new insole plantar pressure and shear stress system based on multifunction data acquisition modular and Lab VIEW. Then the hardware part and software part are designed and developed respectively. There are 3 sensors are arrayed at each measurement point, that means 3 sensors are assembled in 3 different directions of X,Y and Z . The piezoelectric ceramic type sensors are designed, manufactured and calibrated according to scientific methods. Meanwhile, the DAQ card is selected carefully. Of course, the software part is developed based on Lab VIEW. A series of tests are performed in order to validate the function of the measurement system. The results satisfy the anticipated design requirements. At last, the problems and application trend of the measurement system are predicted.

The Stability

A heavy payload attached to the wrist force/moment (F/M) sensor of a manipulator can cause the conventional impedance controller to fail in establishing the desired impedance due to the noncontact components of the force measurement, i.e., the inertial and gravitational forces of the payload. This paper proposes an impedance control scheme for such a manipulator to accurately shape its force-response without needing any acceleration measurement. Therefore, no wrist accelerometer or a dynamic estimator for compensating the inertial load forces is required. The impedance controller is further developed using an inner/outer loop feedback approach that not only overcomes the robot dynamics uncertainty, but also allows the specification of the target impedance model in a general form, e.g., a nonlinear model. The stability and convergence of the impedance controller are analytically investigated, and the results show that the control input remains bounded provided that the desired inertia is selected to be different from the payload inertia. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed impedance controller is able to accurately shape the impedance of a manipulator carrying a relatively heavy load according to the desired impedance model.
