Experimental study on moisture and heat migration and deformation properties of unsaturated soil column under a temperature gradient during rainfall infiltration
Abstract:Mountainous areas in southwest China are rainy in summer. The rainfall infiltration process involves complex soil thermal-hydraulic-mechanical (THM) coupling problems. The researches on soil THM coupling are mostly focused on numerical simulations, whereas the corresponding model tests are relatively few, and the existing model test studies often ignore the effect of temperature gradients in the soil. However, temperature gradients in the soil can cause water migration and affect the THM behavior of soil, so i… Show more
