|
data |
a dataframe of Particle Size Distribution. It can have column names of diameter of the particles "D" [mm], and fraction of the particles "fr" that ranges from 0-1. |
D |
character. The corresponding diameter in the data. |
fr |
character. The corresponding fraction of the particles. |
p |
porosity[g/m^3] |
group |
character. The name of the group variables if the data is from different areas. |
a |
an initial value of 'a' parameter to be optimised |
b |
an initial value of 'b' parameter to be optimised |
e |
an initial value of 'e' parameter to be optimised |
z |
an initial value of 'z' parameter to be optimised |
x |
a return object of the function. |
main |
Title of the plot |
xlab |
x label of the plot |
ylab |
y label of the plot |
... |
Any other graphical parameter |
object |
Model output object |
PD: predicted fraction by mass of particles passing a particular diameter
sand: percentage of sand
clay: percentage of clay
silt: percentage of silt
a: optimised a parameter
b: optimised b parameter
e: optimised e parameter
z: optimised z parameter
