The use of hyperbolic and Asaoka’s methods to estimate the moisture diffusivity and the hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated soils from tests to determine the SWRC
The equation governing the unsaturated transient flow in a soil sample when subjected to suction (ψ) at its base and that of the classical 1-D consolidation are exactly alike (equation of diffusion). The former can be arrived at by Richards’ equation, being in this case the moisture diffusivity (D),...
