Contribution to the Study of Freezing Wet Soils--Interstitial Pressure Near the Freezing Front (Contribution a l'etude de la Congelation des sols Humides. Pression Interstitielle au Voisinage du Front de Congelation),

Abstract

This study deals with certain aspects of ice segregation which takes place when a fine soil is subjected to freezing. On the basis of experimental observations, there was proposed a physical mechanism of secondary phenomena accompanying the displacement of a frost front in a fine moist soil. (Author)
