Effect of moisture content on frozen ground strength

The authors of this paper have investigated the effect of total moisture content on the uniaxial compressive strength of three frozen soils (supes, suglinok and clay) under short- term loading at temperatures between -10 degrees C and -55 degrees C. Polycrystalline ice specimens were also tested und...

Description
Summary:The authors of this paper have investigated the effect of total moisture content on the uniaxial compressive strength of three frozen soils (supes, suglinok and clay) under short- term loading at temperatures between -10 degrees C and -55 degrees C. Polycrystalline ice specimens were also tested under similar conditions.
