چکیده
At high latitudes the length of the growing season is relatively short and is greatly impacted by the interannual variability of the onset of thawing. This seasonal transition from frozen to non-frozen conditions is a major factor that coincides with the Siberian regions seasonal switch from a net source to a net sink of

Strength Characteristics of Clay Mixtures with Waste Materials in Freeze-Thaw Cycles
Waste tires, rubbers, plastic and steel materials, normally produced in every society, enter the environment and cause serious problems. These problems may, to some extent, be reduced by finding applications for them in engineering, for example, they can be used for geotechnical applications as backfill material and solving problems with low shear strength soils. Such materials may be subjected...
متن کاملRock Brittleness Prediction Using Geomechanical Properties of Hamekasi Limestone: Regression and Artificial Neural Networks Analysis
The cold climate is a favorable parameter for the development of tension cracks and decrease of rock brittleness. Therefore, this paper attempts to investigate the Hamekasi porous limestone in order to predict the brittleness indices during freeze-thaw cycles. The freeze–thaw test was executed for one cycle including 16 h of freezing, and 8 h of thawing. The geo mechanical properties and brittl...
متن کاملEffect of freeze-thaw cycle on strength and rock strength parameters (A Lushan sandstone case study)
In an era of continued economic development around the globe, numerous rock-related projects including mining and gas/oil exploration are undertaken in regions with cold climates. Winters in the Iranian western and northwestern provinces are characterized by a high precipitation rate and a cold weather. Under such conditions, rocks are exposed to long freezing periods and several freeze-thaw (F...
متن کاملCompressive Strength Freeze and Thow Durability Correlation in Soil Cement Design (RESEARCH NOTE)
This paper explains the procedure and results of an experiment on the relationship between the unconfined compressive strength and percent weight loss due to freeze and thaw durability test of laboratory compacted soil-cement specimens. The tests were carried out on soil cement mixtures of 10 different soil types. It was shown that the percent weight loss due to freeze and thaw durability test ...
متن کاملEffects of number of freeze-thaw cycles and freezing temperature on mode I and mode II fracture toughness of cement mortar
Natural and artificial materials including rocks and cement-based materials such as concrete and cement mortar are affected both physically and chemically by various natural factors known as weathering factors. The freeze-thaw process, as a weathering factor, considerably affects the properties of rocks and concrete. Therefore, the effect of the freeze-thaw process on the physical and mechanica...
