    homogeneity

    Thanks a lot for the answers. I really appriciate it. Imagine you have a grain size distribution consisted of just two fractions (D0=0 ; D50=1mm ; D100=2mm) and if you consider a vertical segregation (for instance all of grains with 2mm diameter is on the top of the grains with 1 mm diameter)...

    homogeneity

    I try to find a definition for homogeneity of granular soils and here are my questions: 1- Is there any kind of definition? 2- How can I know if a constructed soil of a dam body (for example the soil is a widely graded soil) is homogeneous? 3- If there is a definition, how I can quantitavely...

    Coffer dam Leaking

    I can imagine that the lake floor has not a constant thickness or maybe it is not continuously doveloped or it has been already disturbed. The sheet piling is an alternative in your situation.

    Pressure sensor in permeameter

    Hi, This filter test is a laboratory test. I made a cylinder like a permeability test cylinder.There is a two types of material in this cylinder, one of them is clay and the other is gravel and sand. Assume the cylinder had dimensions of 30 cm diameter and 1000 cm height and had 16 holes for...

    Filter test

    Thank you for your time. (dgillette) as mentioned above I want to perform a filter test not with filter/base combination but just with suspension. (cvg)

    Filter test

    Actually, this test is about Erosion and Suffosion of soil of a dike. I don’t want to design filter because the dike is already there (100 years old), I want to proof the erodibility of fine particles of the related soil. Therefore it is necessary to test the soil of dike. those tries, which...

    Pressure sensor in permeameter

    Hi, Can anybody recommand a way to estimate of head loss of a pressure sensor. For my filter test I want to install pressure sensors as many as it gets. How many sensors are effective and how should the sensores be arranged? (I mean for example in one side of cylinder or around the cylinder or...

    Filter test

    Hi, I want to perform a filter-test without base material and just with suspension. I want to define a function of resistence against erosion. I need to know which parameters of Soil(Filter and Suspension) and Water is important for this test. Which parameters must be measured before and after...
