Assessment of Frost Depth and Frost Heave in Romania

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The investigation of extreme weather and climate events has gained momentum in the last few decades, spurred in part by political involvement. However, not enough attention has been paid to the historical recorded data of climate monitoring. An accurate estimate of maximum soil frost depth is an important factor in determining construction costs and ...

Modeling of frost depth and frost heave in the Luoma test site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Construction work in Finland is a year-round operation, regardless of the challenges that the cold Finnish winter presents. Finland is located in a region where frost effects must always be taken into consideration as a part of designing and construction

Uneven frost heave deformation in water conveyance channels in cold-arid regions: Experimental evidence and thermo-hydro-mechanical coupling analysis

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Uneven frost heave deformation can shorten the operational lifespan of foundation engineering. Clarifying the mechanisms of uneven frost heave facilitates the targeted mitigation of frost damage.

A Note on the Frost Heaving of Rocks

open access: yesJournal of the Japan Society of Engineering Geology, 1973
For the purpose of forecasting the frost heaving of rock masses, the author studied on the relation between the rate of frost heaving and physical properties of rocks such as grain size distribution, specific gravity, water contents, etc. Laboratory tests were carried out to rock specimens which are molded into a cylinder with the height of 3 cm and ...

Frost Heave of Irrigation Canals in Seasonal Frozen Regions

open access: yes, 2019
Soil frost heave acts as a driver of the emerged fracture in the concrete lining of irrigation canals and subsequent water leakage in seasonal frozen ground. A model test was carried out on the frost heave of a U-shaped canal with concrete lining.

Research on the Mechanism of Frost Heaves Caused by Void Water Accumulation behind the Lining of High-Speed Railway Tunnels in Cold Regions

open access: yesApplied Sciences
(1) Background: Lining voids and macroscopic water freezing are both prominent issues that threaten driving safety in high-speed railway tunnels. With the continuous expansion of the scale of high-speed rail tunnels in extremely cold areas in China, the ...

Mechanical behavior assessment of retaining wall structure due to frost heave of frozen ground

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geo-Engineering
Frost heave action is a major issue in permafrost regions, leading to various geotechnical engineering problems. In this study, we assess the mechanical behavior of a concrete retaining wall subjected to frost heave under different ground conditions. The

Analytical prediction of frost heave forces against sheet pile walls

open access: yes, 2023
I kalla klimat kan stödkonstruktioner utsättas för lastökningar till följd av tjälande jord. Tjälen bildas när vattnet i jorden fryser, och leder ofta till en volymexpansion i marken.
