Under the effect of periodic cycle load, the frozen soil exists hysteretic characteristics. According to the research, the five parameters which are the residual strain , the numerical of short axis to long axis of the hysteretic curve , the slope of the hysteretic curve long axis k, the distance of adjacent hysteretic curve center point d and the area surrounded by hysteretic curve S are used to quantitatively represent the morphological characteristics of the hysteretic curve. The hysteretic curve of frozen soil is not a standard ellipse. Its morphological characteristics relate to the initial loading position. The morphological characteristics of the hysteretic curve of different soil affected by frequency, confining pressure and dynamic stress amplitude are different.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
