compressive_properties(water.content, soil=c("Loess", "Calcareous"))
|
water.content |
a numeric vector containing the values of gravimetric water content, \% |
soil |
the soil group 'Loess' or 'Calcareous'. See examples |
In Defossez et al. (2003), the recompression index, kappa, was assumed as 0.0058 for both soil group.
N |
the specific volume at p = 1 kPa, N |
CI |
the compression index, lambda |
