Introduction
The construction of roadway and railway embankments in cold regions can influence the overall thermal response of underlying permafrost. This change in the thermal regime can lead to thermal degradation and an unstable foundation. The use of duct ventilation along the embankment has been found to prevent, or at least slow down, the degradation process when compared to conventional embankments (Zarling et al., 1984, Li et al., 2006, and Yu et al, 2008). In this example, the thermal response of a duct-ventilated embankment, with temperature-controlled shutters, is compared to that of a conventional embankment using TEMP3D.
