4. Permanent soil runoff
4.1 Purpose of soil hydraulics
The aim of soil hydraulics is to characterize permanent (time-independent) flows in soils, taking into account the boundary conditions of the problems being analyzed:
distribution of hydraulic loads and interstitial pressures ;
flow velocity fields ;
flow rates.
For example, it can be used to solve the following problems:
calculating the flow to be pumped to dewater a pit;
calculating the leakage rate of a dam due to water flowing through the dam and into the foundation soil;
study of the effects...
