Abstract
In spite of the importance to applications, the mathematical analysis of the conduction-convection free boundary that arises in the freezing or thawing of saturated porous media is not yet completely treated. A coherent model must take into account both thermal and hydraulic aspects that are strongly coupled according to basic continuum mechanics principles (see [1]).
