Understanding the Changes in Hydraulic Conductivity Values of Coarse- and Fine-Grained Porous Media Mixtures

Low permeability clay-sand mixtures are often used to construct hydraulic barriers to prevent contaminated water leaching from landfills and other waste disposal sites from polluting local groundwater aquifers. In order to engineer effective hydraulic barriers, a proper knowledge of the hydraulic co...
