Sobol, William![Hydraulic Conductivity: Engineering Essentials](https://support.digitalhusky.com/media/annotations/sorted/451/45113944/CHSBZCOP0345113944.jpg)
Hydraulic conductivity of materials such as plants, soil and rocks is defined as the ability of the fluid to pass through pores, spaces or fractures. Saturated hydraulic conductivity is the ratio of volume flux to hydraulic gradient yielding a quantitative measure of a saturated soil's ability to transmit water when subjected to a hydraulic gradient. The level of hydraulic conductivity relies on many factors such as the intrinsic permeability ...
