Fig. 6From: A novel random finite element model for holistically modeling of the frost effects on soils and cold region pavementsBox chart of the distribution of the internal shear stress (kPa) along the height of soil specimen during the freezing process. a 10 minutes; b one hour. (The square in the center of each box indicates the mean value of the internal stress. The horizontal line inside each box is the median value of the internal stress. The upper and lower bounds of the box are determined by 75th and 25th percentiles. The whiskers are determined by the 95th and 5th percentiles)Back to article page
