voidratio: Void Ratio

In soilphysics: Soil Physical Analysis

Void Ratio

Description

A function to calculate the soil void ratio.

Usage

voidratio(wetsoil, drysoil, diam.cylinder, height.cylinder,
    dens.particle, deformation)

Arguments

wetsoil	the weight of wet soil.
drysoil	the weight of dry soil.
diam.cylinder	the diameter of the cylinder.
height.cylinder	the heigth of the cylinder.
dens.particle	the particle density.
deformation	a numeric vector containing soil deformation values.

Value

A numeric vector with same length of deformation containig void ratio values.
