A PC-version of a numerical model for calculation of the frost front penetration and the temperature distribution in frozen and unfrozen soils has been developed. The model is described and so are the results from the application of the model to a field test. -from Authors

The scope of this paper is to introduce a mathematical model based on matrix algebra in order to determine similitude quantities, which can be arranged in specific formats to simulate the field conditions and associated behaviour. The formulation of a typical mathematical model applicable to Geomechanics is demonstrated here. The examples provided are intended to facilitate comprehension and application of the proposed model in practice.
