Study on discrete prediction model for mechanical behavior of buried pipelines under the influence of differential frost heave [PDF]
Pipelines are the primary mode of oil and gas transport in cold regions. Differential frost heaving of frozen and non-frozen soil masses can damage such pipelines, posing economic and environmental risks.

Meshless numerical simulation on Frost cracking of rock masses containing random fissures under water-ice phase change [PDF]
With the vigorous construction of water conservancy projects in the cold regions of western China, the frost heaving cracking problem of rock mass fissures in cold regions under the water-ice phase change seriously threatens the safety of projects.

Frost-heaving pressure in geotechnical engineering materials during freezing process
Energy and resources including coal, oil, and gas are in demand all over the world. Because these resources near the earth’s surface have been exploited for many years, the extraction depth has increased.

Frost Heave in Colloidal Soils [PDF]
We develop a mathematical model of frost heave in colloidal soils. The theory accounts for heave and consolidation while not requiring a frozen fringe assumption. Two solidification regimes occur: a compaction regime in which the soil consolidates to accommodate the ice lenses, and a heave regime during which liquid is sucked into the consolidated soil

Evolution Patterns of Frost-Heaving Pressure with Partial Ponding in Cold Region Tunnels
The calculation of the frost-heaving pressure is one of the key issues in the frost-resistant design of tunnels in cold regions. To reveal the frost heave mechanism of partial ponding behind the tunnel linings, a three-dimensional geo-mechanical model ...
