Question #699997 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/699997
Description changed to: Hi every body I have to get the SWRC curve base on the experimental test (Pressure Plate ). It is vital to define surface tension which is physically equal to 0.0728 (N/m) for water, however I have seen in one of the examples (drainage-2PFV-Yuan_and_Chareyre_2017) that surface tension is equal to 10 (line 127). I've changed the number of surface tension, for example it was multiplied to 4 (0.0728*4) and then result became better since, the type of soil is fine-grained.Therefore I came up with these questions : 1) Why in above-mentioned example surface tension is equal to 10? Is it unit-less? 2) why when surface tension increased (0.0728*4 )sample drained slower? It means water content decreased slowly while, when surface tension is equal to 0.0728 water content drop sharply! -- You received this question notification because your team yade-users is an answer contact for Yade. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
