TLDR
In this article, it was shown that the phase change temperatures are predictable from the Clapeyron equation and the structure of the ice phase also appears to follow the predictions of the heave rate equation proposed by Penner and Ueda.About:

Downward water movement into frozen ground, western arctic coast, Canada
TL;DR: In this article, field studies carried out mainly since 1975 in permafrost areas of Alaska, Canada, China, and the Soviet Union have been combined with the results of laboratory investigations to show that in summe...

A model for water transport and ice lensing in freezing soils
J.-M. Konrad,C. Duquennoi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a one-dimensional model for water transport and ice lensing in incompressible saturated and solute-free soil specimens is proposed for the simulation of small-scale frost heave tests in the laboratory.

The Physics of Frost Heave and Ice-Lens Growth
S. S. L. Peppin,Robert W. Style +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of mathematical models of ice lens growth and frost heave is presented, from early capillary theories and models based on the concept of a frozen fringe, to more recent advances that have revitalised the capillary model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frost susceptibility related to soil index properties
TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of frost-heave data on several soils confirmed that segregation potential, hence frost susceptibility, of saturated soils was best related to the average size of the fines fraction, the specific surface area of the fine fraction, and the ratio of the material's water content to its liquid limit.

Estimation of the segregation potential of fine- grained soils using the frost heave response of two reference soils
TL;DR: In this paper, the frost heave response of quarry fines from several locations in the Province of Quebec was studied in the laboratory using one-dimensional step-freezing tests with free access to water.

Journal Article
Freezing and heaving of saturated and unsaturated soils
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that COOLING OF FAIRLY DRY SOIL, with freezing NUCLEATED at one spot, should cause PORES to fill up with ICE, depleting the water content of the surrounding soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of temperature and pressure on frost heaving
Edward Penner,T. Walton +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of overburden pressure on the relation between rate of heave and cold-side temperature was studied and the concept of a heaving zone was used to calculate the heave-decrease curve.
