Modeling Wicking Fabric Inhibition Effect on Frost Heave

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The deterioration of roads in cold regions can result in unsafe driving conditions and high maintenance costs. Frost heaving is regarded as one of the main reasons for road degradation.

Secondary Frost Heave in Freezing Soils [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM 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.

Study on the evolution characteristics and influencing factors of frost heave on kaolin clay during the horizontal freezing process [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Horizontal frost damage is a significant hazard threatening the safety of structures in cold regions. The frozen fringe represents the transitional zone between unfrozen and frozen soil.

Experimental Research on Frost Heave Characteristics of Gravel Soil and Multifactor Regression Prediction

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
Gravel soil is usually considered to be insensitive to frost heave. However, many frost heave deformations of foundation in seasonal frozen region indicate that gravel soil may also produce frost heave under certain special conditions. In order to gain a

Investigation on frost heave of saturated–unsaturated soils

open access: yesActa Geotechnica, 2020
Frost heave is a process of coupled heat–water–mechanics, which refers to heat transfer, water migration, water–ice phase change, deformation, etc. The mechanism of the frost heave for saturated–unsaturated soils was investigated to establish a frost ...

Double-optimization design of trapezoidal canals considering frost-heave resistance and hydraulic section

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022
The linings of trapezoidal concrete canals in cold regions are prone to frost-heave damage, and both the frost-heave resistance and the water transport efficiency should be taken into account in the design of section.
