Abstract

The problems of land subsidence and deformation caused by freezing-thawing are a major problem in the construction of subway tunnels, and researchers are now focusing on them. This article summarized the research results on the dynamic characteristics of soft clay under freezing-thawing cycles, and analyzed the influencing factors to provide a reference for predicting the settlement of subway tunnels after construction by the freezing method.
