Nonlinear Analysis of Heat and Moisture Transer in Unsaturated Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The nonlinear analysis of heat and moisture transfer in partly saturated soil is discussed. A numerical solution of a theoretical formulation derived by the writer is presented. The method allows the nonlinear nature of ...
Effects of Thermo-Osmosis on Hydraulic Behavior of Saturated Clays
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Despite a body of research carried out on thermally coupled processes in soils, understanding of thermo-osmosis phenomenon in clays and its effects on hydromechanical behavior is incomplete. This paper presents an investigation ...
Finite-Element Method for Contaminant Transport in Unsaturated Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A numerical model to simulate miscible contaminant transport through unsaturated soils is presented. To account for the influence of multiple nonequilibrium sources on the contaminant transport, six governing phenomena of ...
