CA 2518422

A vibration-damping arrangement intended to be placed in a slot-like shaft or trench in earth layers, or in water masses, wherein the arrangement includes a flexible container (1) which is pressurised by a gas in its operative state, and wherein the container has an associated gas generating device (2) which is adapted to generate a predetermined gas volume in the container at a given time delay. The vibration-damping arrangement can be used to reflect the propagation of vibrations or to restrict the occurrence of the quicksand phenomenon in water-containing ground in the event of cyclic pressure variations, e.g. in earthquake or landslip conditions. The arrangement can be conveniently combined with means for draining water from the ground in the near proximity of the container.

L'invention a trait à un agencement d'amortissement des vibrations, destiné à être placé dans un puits ou une tranchée de type fente, qui se trouvent dans des couches terrestes ou des plans d'eau. Ledit agencement comprend un récipient souple (1) qui, à l'état opérationnel, est mis sous pression par un gaz , et un dispositif de génération de gaz (2) qui est associé au récipient, ledit dispositif étant adapté pour générer, dans le récipient, un volume de gaz prédéterminé à un intervalle temporel donné. L'agencement d'amortissement des vibrations peut servir à réfléchir la propagation des vibrations ou à limiter le phénomène de sables mouvants dans un sol aquifère en cas de variations de pression cycliques, par exemple lors d'un tremblement de terre ou d'un glissement de terrain. L'agencement selon l'invention peut être avantageusement combiné avec des moyens permettant de drainer l'eau du sol à proximité immédiate du récipient.
