Abstract: This paper considers the anisotropic frost heave that occurs in frozen soils during thawing and investigates the dynamic response of tunnel systems in such regions to a uniformly distributed load. The phase change of ice ...

Abstract: To study how the coupling between acid–base pollution and freeze–thaw cycles (FTCs) affects the shear-strength properties of recompacted loess, soil specimens are subjected to direct shear tests after FTCs. The experimental ...
