    The influence of foundation self-weight stress on shear velocity has not been taken into account in the existing models for compaction degree measurement based on shear wave velocity, resulting in significant errors in the detection results of deep soil foundation. A test device of airport soil foundation shear wave velocity and foundation self-weight stress is designed to address this issue, and shear wave velocity test of silty clay of 98% compaction degree under variable stress condition is conducted. The unloading method is applied to eliminate the influence of soil sample deformation on the experiment, and a correlation model between the shear wave velocity of airport soil foundation and the foundation self-weight stress is established. And the accuracy of the theoretical value calculated by the model and the measured value is 97.4%, verifying the effectiveness of this model. The results show that under the condition of 98% compaction degree, the foundation self-weight stress increases from 0 kPa to 250 kPa, and the shear wave velocity increases 287.49 m/s, which shows a good logarithmic function relationship. And the shear wave velocity of soil foundation shows an increasing trend from rapid to slow with the increase of stress. Under the same condition of soil compaction degree and optimal moisture content, the shear wave velocity of soil foundation increases with the deepening of foundation depth.

    For the Richards infiltration model of unsaturated soil with highly nonlinear coefficients, the physics-informed neural networks(PINNs) is applied to solve it and the network prediction results are verified by the finite difference method. It is found that the prediction results of PINNs are basically consistent with the prediction results of finite difference method. The influence of hyperparameter on the error of PINNs is further investigated to determine the impact of factors such as training set size and number of network layers on PINNs training set and test set errors. With reasonable hyperparameter adjustment, the PINNs prediction model exhibits good training performance in the highly nonlinear infiltration model. This computational method can be widely applied to solve airport engineering problems such as heat conduction, water vapor migration and stress balance.

    In this paper, two loading methods of surcharge preloading (overload ratio 1.14) and permanent pressure loading are used to carry out in -situ tests on large -area deep soft soil foundation treatment at an airport in Hubei province. By analyzing the data of settlement and pore water pressure monitoring, the change law of soil consolidation degree and the development of horizontal displacement rate of the two loading schemes are summarized, and the post construction settlement is predicted by the hyperbolic method. The test results show that the consolidation degree of most soft soil foundations can reach more than 90% after 120 days of stack-load preloading. The foundation consolidation degree of the surcharge preloading is 3.39% higher than that of the permanent pressure loading in test section. The average predicted post construction settlement of surcharge preloading is 25.59 mm, and the average predicted post construction settlement of permanent pressure preloading is 74.11 mm, both of which can meet the design requirements of post construction settlement. In the two forms of preloading process, the maximum value of the horizontal displacement rate of deep soft soil is 1.65 mm/d, which is lower than the standard value of 5 mm/d. The above conclusions can provide a basis for the subsequent construction of the project and a reference for similar projects.

    The local support deterioration of asphalt concrete pavement is one of the main factors causing its disease. Considering the different deterioration degree of pavement base and subgrade, the deterioration of support material is achieved by the reduction of the mechanical parameters . The numerical simulation is carried out by FLAC3D software. The results show that with the increase of deterioration degree, the deflection and tensile stress of asphalt concrete pavement increase gradually. Besides, the maximum deflection of asphalt concrete pavement decreases in a power function with the increase of deterioration coefficient. When the deterioration area ratio is greater than 1, the pavement deflection increases linearly with the deterioration area ratio. With the development of deterioration depth, pavement deflection value can be divided into rapid increase stage and slow change stage obviously. When the critical depth is exceeded, the influence of support deterioration on pavement deflection is not obvious. The research results have reference significance for improving the operation safety of asphalt pavement under the condition of disease.

    Due to the influence of external environment and human factors, the airport cement concrete pavement panels will encounter early diseases such as surface cracking after 5 to 7 years of use and accelerate the development of other diseases, which makes its service life far less than the designed 20 to 30 years. In order to solve the problem of cracking on the surface of the pavement panel, a composite pavement with engineered cementitions composite (ECC) material on the top and ordinary concrete on the bottom is designed, while the economic factor is also considered. The ABAQUS software is used to simulate the mechanical properties of the composite pavement panel loaded by the aircraft wheel load and the service life is analyzed. The results show that with the increase of the thickness of ECC layer, the deflection of the pavement panel will slightly increase. The service life of the pavement panel will significantly increase because of the excellent tensile and flexural properties of ECC. When the thickness of ECC layer increases from 100 mm to 200 mm, the fatigue life of the pavement is increased by about 5.2 times.

    In order to reveal the distribution law of the temperature stress of the permafrost wide runway under the coupling effect of multifield, the temperature change process of the permafrost during a cold season in a certain region of Northeast China was simulated via indoor experiment and compared with the temperature field model based on the hydro-thermal coupling theory. Furthermore, according to the geological conditions of permafrost in Northeast China, combined with the change of the mechanics parameters of runway structure with temperature, a hydrothermal-mechanical coupled two-dimensional finite element model of runway foundation was established. Finally, the distribution law of the overall temperature stress of the runway surface structure and the foundation in January, April, July and October during the 30 years was calculated. The results show that the method of calculating the temperature field of frozen soil based on the finite element simulation of hydro-thermal coupling is effective. The influence depth of horizontal temperature stress in the middle of the runway is about 5 m. The temperature stress changes significantly in January and July during the year, and temperature compressive stress exists in most of the permafrost foundation, and it increases year by year. The maximum temperature tensile stress in the pavement structure layer appeared in the center surface of the runway in January, which was about 30% of the split strength of the surface material, and appeared in the base of the runway in July, which was about 28% of the split strength of the base material. It can be seen that temperature stress of permafrost runway foundation need attention in summer and winter. The above results can provide reference for airport runway design in permafrost environment.

    In orderto investigate the de-icing effect of carbon fiber concrete(CFRC) pavement, this paper verifiesthe reliability of numerical simulation of the electrothermal temperature rise process of CFRC pavement slab by comparing the results of indoor tests with those of ABAQUS electrothermal effect analysis, and investigates the temperature rise law of pavement with and without insulation layer, under different voltage, carbon fiber content, external temperature and wind speed level. The simulation results show that the higher the carbon fiber content, the less the influence of input voltage on the temperature rise rate of the pavement slab, and when the carbon fiber content reaches 1.7%, the influence on the temperature rise rate of the pavement slab will no longer be obvious.

    The initial external temperature has little effect on the temperature rise rate of the pavement slab, and the higher the external wind speed level, the slower the temperature rise rate. When the external wind speed level is higher than level three, the voltage impact on the pavement slab temperature rise is greater, when the wind speed reaches level six, It is difficult for the pavement slab to warm up to 0°C under the voltage below 90V. When the external temperature is -10°C, the heating rate of the pavement slab with insulation layer is faster than that without insulation layer, and when the wind speed level is lower than level three, the de-icing effect of the road panel with and without insulation layer is small. By studying the model temperature rise curves under different influencing factors, reference can be provided for the construction of CFRC airport pavement in cold regions.

    In the management of airport runway engineering projects, scientifically and reasonably arranging the construction schedule is an important factor to ensure short project duration, low cost, excellent quality, and good environment. Therefore, this article mainly conducts multi-objective optimization research on the airport runway construction schedule, including construction period, cost, quality, and environment. Firstly, based on the airport runway construction blueprint, a 3D model is established using Revit software of building information modeling (BIM), and the construction models are imported into Glodon and Project to obtain quantitative data such as costs and an initial construction schedule. Secondly, a mathematical model for optimizing the objective functions of duration, cost, quality, and environment is established, and utilizing the Matlab-GUl language, a multi-objective optimization software for airport runway construction schedule with parameter input, optimization, and result output is developed based on genetic algorithm (GA). Finally, by optimizing the construction schedule of the actual case, the effectiveness and practicality of the approach and software are verified, which serves as a basis for the design of the airport runway construction schedule

    Taking civil aviation airports in China as the research object and using cross-section data of 2019 as the time window, a model of the relationship between airport digitization and carbon reduction is constructed. From the perspective of capability advanced evolution and complementarity, the relationship between digitization and carbon emissions under the viewpoint of construction scale and administrative division is analyzed, and the mechanism of digitization effect on airport carbon emission is tested. It is found that airport digitization can significantly suppress carbon emissions, and carbon intensity decreased 0.108% with every 1% increase in digitization level. The carbon emission reduction effect of digitization has obvious regional differences, while there is no scale effect. Digitization mainly realizes carbon emission reduction through improvement of management level and passenger service satisfaction by efficient resource allocation. The research conclusion of this paper can provide theoretical support and empirical evidence for propulsion of carbon peak and carbon neutrality in civil aviation based on digital technology
