Hydrological–Thermal Coupling Simulation of Silty Clay during Unidirectional Freezing Based on the Discrete Element Method

A hydrological–thermal coupling discrete element model depicting the unidirectional freezing process of unsaturated silty clay was developed in order to investigate the migration law of unfrozen water in unsaturated silty clay under unidirectional freezing circumstances. The model uses the contact h...
