Abstract
Frost damage is one of the main factors affecting the stability of canal slopes in cold regions. To alleviate the damage, laying protective layers during the construction process has become an indispensable measure. In this study, two slope models were constructed using polyester geotextiles (slope I) and composite geomembranes (slope II) as the protective layer. Additionally, the insulation board in the control group were laid on specific section to examine their anti-frost effect. The temperature, frozen depth, and frost deformations of slope models during the freeze-thaw process were recorded and analyzed. Results suggest that the temperature of slope II is relatively lower than that of slope I in the freezing process. The temperature reduction at all monitoring sections of slope II are larger than that of slope I. The slope I exhibits a significant decrease in maximum frozen depth and maximum frost deformation. In particular, the section with the maximum frost deformation is independent of the type of protective layer, which all occurs in the middle of the slopes. The maximum frost deformations of slope models are 33.60 mm and 37.69 mm, respectively after laying the polyester geotextiles and composite geomembranes. Therefore, the polyester geotextiles have more advantages in reducing frost deformation than composite geomembranes. Additionally, if the insulation board and polyester geotextiles are laid together inside the slope, the maximum frost deformation can be further reduced to 9.72 mm. This study will help in the design and construction of canal slopes in cold regions.
期刊介绍：
Cold Regions Science and Technology is an international journal dealing with the science and technical problems of cold environments in both the polar regions and more temperate locations. It includes fundamental aspects of cryospheric sciences which have applications for cold regions problems as well as engineering topics which relate to the cryosphere.
Emphasis is given to applied science with broad coverage of the physical and mechanical aspects of ice (including glaciers and sea ice), snow and snow avalanches, ice-water systems, ice-bonded soils and permafrost.
Relevant aspects of Earth science, materials science, offshore and river ice engineering are also of primary interest. These include icing of ships and structures as well as trafficability in cold environments. Technological advances for cold regions in research, development, and engineering practice are relevant to the journal. Theoretical papers must include a detailed discussion of the potential application of the theory to address cold regions problems. The journal serves a wide range of specialists, providing a medium for interdisciplinary communication and a convenient source of reference.
