• Abstract:
  "This study examines the influence of temperature rise and freeze-thaw cycles on the soil liquefaction potential. More specifically, dynamic properties and post-cyclicloading ; settlement of fine-grained soils are evaluated in this study. The results can be used to predict seismic response of partially frozen, frozen, or thawed fine-grained ; soils in seismic subarctic regions. In other words, the influence of seasonal climate change on the seismic response of Mabel Creek silt is reported in this study. ; Systematic laboratory tests were conducted for the purpose of addressing the influence of temperature and cycles of freeze-thaw on liquefaction of Mabel Creek silt."
