Moisture transfer finite element modeling with soil-water characteristic curve-based parameters and its application To Nhan co red mud basin slope
Moisture transfer finite element modeling with soil-water characteristic curve-based parameters and its application To Nhan co red mud basin slope
The soil cohesion and angle of internal friction depend greatly on the soil moisture. Specifically, soil with a lower moisture content has a higher shearing strength than that in soil with higher moisture content. The finite element modeling of moisture transfers in unsaturated soils through the relationship between soil moisture, soil suction, unsaturated permeability and soilmoisture dispersivity is capable of accurately predicting the wetting front development. The element sizes and time step
