Experimental Study of Influence Factors in Unsaturated Soil Infiltration Rate

Abstract:

Based on the unsaturated soil ponding water infiltration test in laboratory, the influences of cohesive particles content, dry density and initial water content on infiltration rate are analyzed. Soil infiltration rate decreased with the increase of cohesive particles content and dry density; with the decrease of initial water content at low dry density, and with the increase of initial water content at high dry density.
