Rock masses in high-elevation or cold areas are vulnerable to the joint results of freeze-
thaw (FT) action and dynamic loading, it is thus significant to evaluate the tensile mechanical …

The acoustic emission (AE) signal characteristics and deformation characteristics of cracked
rocks under shear load can characterize the degree of rock degradation under freeze–thaw …

Bedrocks of engineering projects are commonly affected by freezing-thawing (FT) process in
mountainous areas. Consequently, determining the degradation rate of rocks due to FT …

To design structures such as buildings, roads, highways, bridges, and railroads, one of the
most important parameters is the freeze–thaw resistance of aggregate. The direct analysis of …

Rock mass usually contains cracks, joints and other defects with different density and spatial
combination characteristics in the diagenetic process. Under the freeze–thaw effect, they …

Fractured rock mass is a kind of complex rock mass widely existing in engineering projects,
which is often subjected to erosion by different pH hydrochemical solutions such as surface …

Based on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technology, the effect of sandstone creep
behaviors on porosity is analyzed. Through quantitative analysis of NMR parameters, the …

Freeze–thaw action is one of the primary factors causing rock damage in seasonally frozen
regions. Investigating macroscopic and mesoscopic correlations is essential for examining …

Predicting uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of building stones after deterioration by
freeze–thaw action is critical in selecting the stones for outdoor applications especially in …

A growing rock engineering activity in cold regions is facing the threat of freeze-thaw (FT)
weathering, especially in high mountains where the sunny-shady slope effects strongly …
