Mechanism of grout bulb expansion and its effect on ground uplifting

In order to study the uplifting effect of compensation grouting on ground surface and the upper structures,the ground heave induced by stratum expansion was considered as a stochastic process and the stochastic medium theory was applied to determine the heave and deformation of ground surface under uniform and non-uniform expansion models of spherical grout bulb.The corresponding calculating formulas and simplified methods were derived based on the hypotheses of radial expansion.Then,a numerical model,in wh...
