A Generalized Secondary Frost Heave Model

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1994
A generalized model for secondary frost heave is developed. Secondary frost heave arises during freezing owing to cryostatic suction effects that can increase the upward water permeation to facilitate ice-lens growth and increased heave. Nondimensionalization and scaling are used to simplify the model equations and to identify a dimensionless group ...

Experimental study on water transfer of soil-rock mixtures under freezing action

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
The frost-heaving failure of earth-rock dam slopes is mainly caused by the combined action of sand and gravel cushion, frost heaving of dam fills and water migration.

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

Frost heaving of foundation pit for seasonal permafrost areas

open access: yesИнженерно-строительный журнал, 2019
Frost heaving can cause support structures to crack and even instability of the foundation pit. This paper describes the frost heaving features of the steel pile pre-stressed tendon composite foundation pit support system (SPPTCFPSS). As a combined rigid–

Frost heave performance of a foundation at an overhead transmission line in the alpine seasonal frozen regions

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2023
The Manzhouli 500 kV electrical transmission line travels more than 218 km through seasonal frozen regions, which result in many freezing soil engineering problems with respect to the transmission tower foundations.

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.

Experimental Study on Frost-Heaving Force Development of Tibetan Clay Subjected to One-Directional Freezing in an Open System

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Frost heave of soils involves complex coupled interactions among moisture, heat, and stress, which can cause serious damage to cold regions engineering. In this paper, a series of one-directional freezing experiments were implemented for the Tibetan clay
