A literature survey shows that present interest in frost action research is focused on thermodynamic properties of the ice-water interface. This aspect of the freezing process is a fascinating field for research and much progress is being made, but there are many other equally important aspects, when ice-lensing is involved in the freezing process.

THE EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERIZATION AND NUMERICAL MODELLING OF FROST HEAVE
Frost heave is the expansion of soil upon freezing due to the formation and growth of segregated ice lenses. Because of the large stresses and displacements associated with frost heave, it is an import design consideration for geotechnical structures ...

Estimation of frost heave for stratified soil profile
An operational model for estimation of frost heave in field where stratified soil profile occurs is presented. The model is developed from the research model described and verified by Sheng and Knutsson (1993). Soil layers are first classified into frost-

Frost heave in compressible soils
We develop a mathematical model of frost heave in compressible soils based on a morphological instability of the ice–soil interface. The theory accounts for heave and soil consolidation,while avoiding the frozen fringe assumption. Using a Lie-B¨acklund transformation an analytical solution to the governing equations is found. Two solidification regimes
