Structural, volumetric and water retention behaviors of a compacted clay upon saline intrusion and freeze-thaw cycles

This study investigates the evolution of the structural, volumetric and water retention behaviors of a compacted clay during soaking and desiccation considering the influences of freeze-thaw (FT) cycles and saline intrusion. Compacted specimens were subjected to different FT cycles and then submerge...
