Computation for Water Infiltration of Unsaturated Loess

Article Preview

Abstract:

Rainfall and the water leak frequently causes the unsaturated loess slope landslide and the foundation destruction. The theoretical analysis was accomplished, then a two dimensional water seepage calculation model for loess foundation was established. It realized the forecast for the water content change of loess soil. Combined with an example, the calculating program was compiled by Matlab. The result confirmed the effectiveness and rationality of the method and model.
