Secondary Frost Heave in Freezing Soils [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1989 Summary: A mathematical model of secondary frost heave in freezing, gravelly soils is presented. This model is due to \textit{K. O'Neill} and \textit{R. D. Miller} [Water. Resour. Res., 21, 281-296 (1985)], who sought numerical solutions. Here, their model is made nondimensional and is analyzed using asymptotic analysis.

Frost heave behavior of coarse-grained materials for high-speed railways subgrade: experimental analysis and machine learning predictive modeling [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCoarse-grained subgrade fill has traditionally been considered frost-heave-insensitive. However, uneven frost heave in such materials has become a critical constraint for high-speed railways (HSRs) in cold regions.
