Using grain size distribution to estimate permeability
Using grain size distribution to estimate permeability
This study examines the saturated water permeability using samples of loose and dense 2-fraction coarse sand mixtures. Besides the non-normalised entropy variables, some additional parameters like void ratio or relative density are used to characterize the pore sizes. Two variable pairs the (Cu and d10) and the non-normalised entropy variables (ΔS and S0) are found to have similar role, to describe the mean and the maximum controlling pore diameter sizes, resp.
