Abstract
Abstract A diamond wire saw was modified for cutting thin sections of frozen soil and suitable operating conditions were determined experimentally. It was found that a lubricated wire, 0.34 mm in diameter, operaied at cutting velocities of 100-300 mm s-1 and cutting forces 0.02-0.1 kg produced smooth cut surfaces un thin sections 0.4-0.5 mm in thickness. The; temperature and wire size were not critical operating parameters and the wire tensions recommended by the manufacturer were satisfactory. A method of mounting the thin sections is also described.
