(z, t, rw, re, A1=1, A2=0, A3=0, H=1, rs=None, ks=None, kw0=10000000000.0, kh=1, mv=0.1, gamw=10, ui=1)[source]¶ Radial consolidation with depth and time dependent well resistance
Implementation of [R7].
Features:
- Radial flow to drain (no vertical flow in soil)
- Vertical flow in drain.
- Linear depth variation of drain permeability in time.
- Exponential decrease in drain peremability with time.
- Uses approximate (like Hansbo) method to solve pore pressure in drain.
- Radially averaged pore pressure at depth and time in soil.
Drain pereability is kw = kw0 * (A1 - A2 * z / H) * exp(-A3 * t)
Parameters: z : float or 1d array/list of float
Depth.
t : float or 1d array/list of float
Time.
rw : float
Drain radius.
re : float
Drain influence radius.
A1 : float, optional
Parameter controlling depth dependance of well resistance. Default A1=1.
A2 : float, optional
Parameter controlling depth dependance of well resistance. Default A2=0.
A3 : float, optional
Parameter controlling time dependance of well resistance. Default A3=0.
H : float, optional
Drainage path length. Default H=1.
rs : float, optional
Drain influence radius. Default rs=None i.e. no smear zone.
ks : float, optional
Smear zone permeability. Default ks=None, i.e. no smear zone.
kw0 : float, optional
Initial well permeability. Default kw0=1e10 i.e. ideal drain.
kh : float, optional
Horizontal coefficient of permeability. Default kh=1.
mv : float, optional
Volume compressibility. Default mv=0.1.
gamw : float, optional
Unit weight of water. Default gamw=10.
ui : float, optional

Returns: por : 2d array of float
Pore pressure at depth and time. por is an array of size (len(z), len(t)).
