Research Abstract |
A three-dimensional numerical consolidation model was developed to predict differential settlement for a new research base at Dome Fuji, Antarctica. During 54th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition, the spatial distribution of snow hardness was evaluated. Hard compacted snow experiments were conducted under extremely low temperature as well. The hard compacted snow method was applied to 9m-telescope tower construction, and the method worked very well. Additionally, a experimental snowdrift study around the 9m-telescope tower was succeeded.
