The mechanism of hydraulic pressure aggravates coarse-grained soil frost heave: Implication for frost prevention to high-speed railway subgrade
Coarse-grained soil is generally used in cold-regions infrastructure to mitigate the frost damage to engineering because of its non-frost heave susceptibility; however, in certain cases, coarse-grained fill has been observed to experience frost heave under hydraulic pressure. To reveal the mechanism of hydraulic pressure on coarse-grained soil frost heave, a model was developed to describe the frost heave in coarse-grained soil, incorporating the migration of external water to ice lenses through an unfrozen water film under hydraulic pressure, then the model was validated using published results. Subsequently, based on the validated model, the influence mechanism of hydraulic pressure and fine content on coarse-grained soil frost heave were analyzed. The calculation results demonstrate that the hydraulic pressure aggravates frost heave by increasing the pore water pressure gradient in the unfrozen water film. Additionally, frost heave rate increases with fine content because of the thickening of the film, which facilitates water flow and ice segregation. Furthermore, gray correlation analysis demonstrated that the impact of hydraulic pressure on frost heave in coarse-grained soil is more significant than that of fine content. Finally, the study discusses frost damage that occurred in high-speed railway subgrade and proposes the preventive measures.
期刊介绍:
Transportation Geotechnics is a journal dedicated to publishing high-quality, theoretical, and applied papers that cover all facets of geotechnics for transportation infrastructure such as roads, highways, railways, underground railways, airfields, and waterways. The journal places a special emphasis on case studies that present original work relevant to the sustainable construction of transportation infrastructure. The scope of topics it addresses includes the geotechnical properties of geomaterials for sustainable and rational design and construction, the behavior of compacted and stabilized geomaterials, the use of geosynthetics and reinforcement in constructed layers and interlayers, ground improvement and slope stability for transportation infrastructures, compaction technology and management, maintenance technology, the impact of climate, embankments for highways and high-speed trains, transition zones, dredging, underwater geotechnics for infrastructure purposes, and the modeling of multi-layered structures and supporting ground under dynamic and repeated loads.
