Geothermal energy piles (GEPs) are an environmentally friendly energy source which utilise
the low-grade heat energy present in the shallow earth surface to provide heating and/or …

This position paper was developed by members of the task force on “Energy Geostructures”
of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE) …

Ground source heat pumps are known as a high-efficiency renewable energy heating and
cooling system. The ground heat exchanger (GHE) plays an important role to achieve a …

Energy piles are heat capacity systems that have been increasingly exploited to provide
both supplies of energy and structural support to civil structures. The energy and …

Increasing use of the ground as a thermal reservoir is expected in the near future. Shallow
geothermal energy (SGE) systems have proved to be sustainable alternative solutions for …

Energy geotechnics involves the use of geotechnical principles to understand and engineer
the coupled thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical processes encountered in collecting …

A thermal response test (TRT) was conducted on a full-scale precast high strength concrete
(PHC) pipe pile installed in multi-layered ground, in order to investigate the thermal …

The aim of this paper is to review the recent scientific literature concerning geothermal heat
pumps and the existing regulations and/or technical guidelines in selected European …

This paper evaluates the feasibility of by-product-based controlled low-strength material
(CLSM) as a grout for geothermal systems. Quartz-based mine tailings and pond ash were …

This paper examines the thermal resistances of energy piles and surrounding soils. A field-
scale bored energy pile was installed through stiff sandy clay and dense sand and …
