Using Global Characteristics of a Centrifuge Outflow Experiment to Determine Unsaturated Soil Parameters

Several centrifugation scenarios enabling the determination of soil parameters for saturated-unsaturated flow in porous media are presented, investigated, and discussed. Only global characteristics of the infiltration process in a sample are used, so that only simple, noninvasive measurements are pe...
