Sorptivity Variation During Infiltration

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

ABSTRACT SORPTIVITY, a constant, as defined by the Philip two-term algebraic infiltration equation, has been of interest to researchers because its development is based on the physical analysis of soil hydraulic properties. This paper presents the mathematical variations of sorptivity under prolonged infiltration time, and thus provides a guide to evaluation of sorptivity for infiltration computation as prescribed by Fok linearized two-term infiltration equations.
