... However, these infrastructures frequently encounter significant frost damage during the cycles of seasonal freezing and thawing. The primary contributor to such damage is the frost heave Communicated by Hassan Babaie. of frozen soil Li et al. 2015;Wang M et al. 2024a;Hai et al. 2023Hai et al. , 2024Su et al. 2024;Wang Y et al. 2018Wang Y et al. , 2022Wang Y et al. , 2024c. To ensure the proper functioning of these canals and to prolong their operational lifespan, various measures have been implemented to alleviate the impacts of frost heave deformation. ...

... Their results pertained to the shear stress at this interface and also explored the formation and variation mechanisms of shear stress through microscopic analysis. Fang et al. [27,28] performed experiments on the frozen soil-concrete interface and conducted post-shear microstructural analysis. Their objective was to elucidate how concrete surface roughness affects the shear strength between concrete and frozen soil, with a focus on uncovering the causes and nature of stick-slip failure. ...
