calc_cru_wwm: Calculate peak root reinforcement according to WWMc model

In GJMeijer/FBMcw: Generic fibre bundle model for soil reinforcement by plant roots

Description

This function calculates the peak root reinforcement according to the Wu/Waldron model. It sums the contributions of all roots in all classes

Usage

calc_cru_wwm(phir, tru0, k = 1.2)

Arguments

phir	root area ratio in class (array)
tru0	representative tensile strength in class (array) (numeric array)
k	Wu/Waldron factor accounting for root orientations at failure (numeric scalar, default 1.2)

Value

numeric array with peak reinforcement preductions 'cru_wwm'

Examples

calc_cru_wwm(seq(0.001,0.002,l=6), 10e3*seq(1,5,l=6))
