A Unified Model for the Soil Freezing Characteristic Curve Based on Pore Size Distribution and Principles of Thermodynamics

Abstract The soil freezing characteristic curve (SFCC) is used as a tool for interpreting various properties of frozen soils such as hydraulic conductivity, volume change, and shear strength. Existing SFCC models are commonly based on empirical relationships, pore size distribution (POSD), or adapta...
