I have a question about my Physics Stack Exchange post: Could you help me please with mathematical model of the soil freezing process?

I got it (I fix my question)

Why is it "On Hold"?

    $\begingroup$ Frankly, I voted to remain closed because you have dumped an equation on us, said you were using it to model something, and then asked us to explain to you what you are modeling. The onus is on you to actually try and figure out the physics of the problem, and ask more directed questions when you run into a dead end. $\endgroup$

I voted to keep the question closed for similar reasons as what Emilio wrote in a comment to the question: you have a wildly specific equation that must have come from somewhere, didn't they explain what it is and how it's derived?

So while it doesn't seem to be too broad, as was originally closed, it's not clear what research of your own you've done to address the issue. Hence, I voted to keep it closed.

If you provided the resource that gave you the equation and some relevant text around the given equation in that resource, it might be easier for us to understand what is missing and, thus, reopen the question.

  • $\begingroup$ I agree completely. Plus, without the OP actually understanding the physics of the equation there is no hope of actually getting anything useful out of the simulations. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @sasvak posting link the here will do you little good, you need to edit your post with the details (not just the link) $\endgroup$
