Saturated frozen soil is composed of soil, unfrozen water and ice, whose subgrade deformation is due to the weakened of internal structure which coursed by damage of the materials in the process of the cycle of freezing and thawing. Considing of the heterogeneity of saturated frozen soil and the phase transition between water and ice, and using of the damage mechanics theory, thermodynamics theory, filtration mechanics theory, a constitutive model of saturated frozen soil is setted up, which is of the coupfing problem of temperature field, water field and stress field. The rationality and validity of the model is verified by the experiment. It is also provided a new method for the study of frozen soil.

Computer simulation is carried out for investigating the effect of nanoparticles on diblock copolymer morphology under cylindrical confinement. The phase diagrams of polymer nanocomposites with nanoparticle-block wetting strength and concentration of nanoparticles are obtained in different nanopores. In small diameter nanopore, there is almost no influence of nanoparticles on the diblock copolymer morphology because of the stronger confinement effect; in middle diameter nanopore, the system can self-assemble into various novel structures due to the interaction between confinement effect and nanoparticles effect; in large diameter nanopore, due to the stronger effect of nanoparticles, a disorder-order-disorder phase transition occurs with the wetting strength and concentration of nanoparticles increasing. This result can be useful in designing new nanocomposites with advanced electrical conductivity and/or mechanical strength.
