Presently, there are several tasks in hydrology, which need application of suitable models for their accomplishment. To decide suitability of a particular model, first the user should look at the availability of the data and model requirements, and then, a suitable model should be chosen for performing the task. Few of the hydrological tasks are […]

In this article we will discuss about the:- 1. Meaning of Permeability 2. Darcy’s Law for Determining the Permeability of Soils 3. Coefficient 4. Factors 5. Determination. Meaning of Permeability: The velocity of water flowing through a soil mass between any two points depends directly on the hydraulic gradient or the head loss per unit […]
How to Determine the Permeability of Stratified Soil Deposits?
Article shared by :
The soil mass, in the field, consists of several layers of soil deposited one above the other. Each layer may have different coefficients of permeability. The average of permeability of the entire soil deposit depends on the direction of flow with respect to bedding planes. Transported soils usually exist in several layers, each layer with […]
