Effect of freeze–thaw cycle on physical and mechanical properties and damage characteristics of sandstone

Abstract Rock deterioration under freeze–thaw cycles is a concern for in-service tunnel in cold regions. Previous studies focused on the change of rock mechanical properties under unidirectional stress, but the natural rock mass is under three dimensional stresses. This paper investigates influences...
