Featuring soil temperature measurements from a small-scale simulated road embankment experiment conducted in a controlled-temperature room. The embankment was divided into two sections for comparing foam glass aggregates against conventional MG-20b material, with temperature data measured vertically at three locations per section. The author is Pauline Segui from Borealis Harvested Dataverse.
Use Cases
- Compare soil temperature profiles between the foam glass aggregates and MG-20b sections to evaluate thermal mitigation performance.
- Analyze vertical temperature gradients from the top to the bottom of the embankment material at the center and side locations.
- Model heat transfer in permafrost engineering applications using temperature data from the controlled experimental setup.
Strengths
- Data originates from a controlled-temperature room experiment, ensuring consistent environmental conditions for comparison.
- Temperature measurements were taken at three distinct locations (center and both sides) for each embankment section, providing spatial coverage.
Limitations
- The dataset is from a small-scale simulated embankment, limiting direct extrapolation to full-scale, real-world infrastructure.
- The specific number of data points (rows) and measurement variables (columns) is unknown, hindering precise assessment of dataset scale.
