Permeability

Compatibility with ASTM testing methods make SoilVision the ultimate environment for the management of your permeability data. Let one of our eight methods estimate a saturated hydraulic conductivity for you to reduce the cost of youre experimental program. Then let one of our five pedo-transfer functions estimate your permeability as a function of soil suction. Take the guesswork out of how much will move how fast through your soil.

   

Features:

  • Eight methods for estimating saturated hydraulic conductivity including methods from Hazen, Kozeny-Carman, Kruger, Zamarin, Terzaghi, Slichter, the USBR, and two methods from Rawls & Brakensiek
  • Five pedo-transfer functions for estimating permeability as a function of soil suction including methods from van Genuchten, Fredlund & Xing, Kunze (KCAL), Brooks & Corey, and Campbell
  • Separate management of field and laboratory data
  • Calculation of air permeability by the Brooks & Corey method for your vapor extraction needs
  • Experimental database of hundreds of permeability curves and over 2500 experimentally measured saturated hydraulic conductivities
  • Detailed graphing capabilities
  • Comprehensive querying capabilities
  • ASTM standard database capabilities for your laboratory data
  • Professional report generation
  • Support for English and Metric units
  • Enhanced plotting
   

Application:

  • Seepage and contaminant transport modeling
