Title: BEHAVIOR OF FROZEN AND UNFROZEN SANDS IN TRIAXIAL TESTING
Accession Number: 00488735
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Frozen and unfrozen soils are natural composite materials composed of soil particles and voids that can be partly or totally filled with ice or water. When the temperature of the soils decreases below 0 deg C, its water phase crystallizes to ice, which changes its mechnaical behavior. The purpose of this paper is to present the results of an experimental investigation of the bahavior of frozen and unfrozen sands in triaxial testing. The results are presented in the form of a comparative analysis of the relationships among stress, strain, and volume change of these materials tested under the same conditions of confining pressure and strain rate. In the conclusion, emphasis is given to structures that are usually subjected to such changes in behavior because of seasonal temperature changes.
