In this contribution we propose a model of coupled heat and moisture transport in variable saturated deformed porous media. Solution of this model provides temperature, moisture content and strain as a function of space and time. We present the detailed description of the model and a~numerical illustrative example.
We present an asynchronous multi-domain time integration algorithm with a dual domain decomposition method for the initial boundary-value problems for a parabolic equation. For efficient parallel computing, we apply the three-field domain decomposition method with local Lagrange multipliers to ensure the continuity of the primary unknowns at the interface between subdomains. The implicit method for time discretization and the multi-domain spatial decomposition enable us to use different time steps...
The model of coupled heat transport and Darcian water flow in unsaturated soils and in conditions of freezing and thawing is analyzed. In this contribution, we present results concerning the existence of the numerical solution. Numerical scheme is based on semi-implicit discretization in time. This work illustrates its performance for a problem of freezing processes in vertical soil columns.
