Up-to-date coverage of fundamental seepage principles, closed-form
solutions, and applications Seepage in Soils combines a broad range of
applications with rigorous quantitative skills to give insight into the
fundamental principles and mathematical solutions of seepage. A wealth
of closed-form analytical solutions are provided to solve a variety of
problems, minimizing the use of computer software and numerical models. Completely up to date with coverage of new developments in separators,
filters, and geosynthetics, this textbook includes exercises in seepage
quantification, seepage forces, and dewatering. Complete coverage is
useful in all subdivisions of civil engineering. Material is divided
into three modules: Principles and mathematical solutions Filters and
drainage layers Applications Only a nominal background in mathematics
and soil mechanics is required for Seepage in Soils to serve as an
invaluable resource for civil engineering students across many
subdisciplines. In addition, it serves as a useful reference for
geotechnical, environmental, and structural engineers, hydrologists,
geologists, agronomists, and soil scientists.
