The physics of frost heave and ice-lens growth

The formation of rhythmic lenses of ice in freezing soils is an intriguing geophysical phenomenon that is not fully understood, despite much experimental and theoretical work over the past century. We review proposed mathematical models of ice lens growth and frost heave, from early capillary theori...
