Experimental Study on the Influence of Freezing Pressure on the Uniaxial Mechanical Properties of Ice by Baosheng Wang, Weihao Yang, Peixin Sun, Xin Huang, Yaodan Zhang, Fengjun Chen

“…In this study, a test technique that enables continuous control of the sample stress state from freezing to testing is proposed to investigate the influence of freezing pressure on the mechanical properties of ice under uniaxial compression. In this method, the water is frozen into the standard cylindrical ice specimen under high hydraulic pressure in a triaxial pressure chamber, and then, the temperature field and stress field of the ice specimens are adjusted to the initial state of the test; finally, an in situ mechanical test is conducted in the triaxial chamber. …”
