Sodic soil is one of the most common problems of limiting agricultural production that related on irrigation. Saturated hydraulic conductivity is one of hydrodynamic characteristics in evaluating transmission flow through underground levels. To investigate the role of increment of exchangeable sodium in hydraulic conductivity changes (as characterized by the mobility of water in soil) an experi...

This study investigated the combined effect of temperature and single-species salt solutions on geotechnical properties (swell index and liquid limit) and hydraulic conductivity of bentonite applying different cation types, concentrations, and temperatures. Results showed that both the swell index and the liquid limit decreased with an increase in salt concentration irrespective of the type of ...

In this study, natural bentonite was used as natural clay material and samples were taken from the Kalecik district in Ankara. In this research, bentonite is the subject of an analysis from standpoint of assessing the basic properties of engineered barriers with respect to the buffer material. Bentonite and sand mixtures were prepared for tests. Some of clay minerals give relatively higher hydr...

abstract disc infiltrometer is one of those devices that used in recent years in measurement of hydraulic conductivity of entire soil. in order to analyze the data taken by disc infiltrometer a variety of methods based on wooding’s base analyze have been introduced. the objective of this study was to compare the performances of ankeny and weir methods for predicting soil hydraulic properties us...

application of outflow water from treatment plants for irrigation as a non-usual water resource is being developed due to the lack of usual water resources in iran. activated carbon as a conditioner in water treatment procedures causes undesired changes in hydraulic properties of porous media and soil degradation. in this paper, the effects of activated carbon concentration on hydrodynamic prop...

Hydrologic understanding of mountainous and northern regions of Canada is poor owing to the lack of critical field data such as hydraulic conductivity. A portable field instrument, the Guelph permeameter (GP)...

[1] Prediction of flow through variably saturated porous media requires accurate knowledge of the soil hydraulic properties, namely the water retention function (WRF) and the hydraulic conductivity function (HCF). Unfortunately, direct measurement of the HCF is time consuming and expensive. In this study, we derive a simple closed-form equation that predicts the saturated hydraulic conductivity...

Transmissivity results from eight aquifer tests were used to derive horizontal hydraulic conductivity values for hydrogeologic units underlying the Sequim-Dungeness Peninsula in Clallam County. Specific-capacity information for the tested production wells also was analyzed to obtain a second hydraulic conductivity value for comparison against the "aquifer test" results. These paired estimates d...
