Double-drained consolidation at point in time and space
Description
Calculates the degree of consolidation Uv in a double-drained soil layer at a certain (normalised) times: Tv = c_v*t/d^2 and at certain (normalised) position in the layer (zd = z/d), where 'd' is half the thickness of the open layer
Initial excess pore pressure is assumed to be uniform across the entire soil layer
Solution uses the fourier series method to solve the consolidation equation, detailed in Craig's Soil Mechanics, among others
Usage
calculate_consolidation_openlayer(zd, Tv, nfourier = 50)
Arguments
zd |
normalised depth (array) |
Tv |
normalised time (array) |
nfourier |
number of fourier steps to use |
Value
array with degrees of consolidation (between 0 and 1)
