A new approach in research into drainage materials
Abstract
In the past decades in many countries installation of agricultural drainage systems' has evolved into an almost completely mechanized operation. Progress in technology has been remarkable and drainage engineers obviously could not keep pace with enhanced research requirements:introduction of new techniques and materials was followed by laboratory and field research, instead of the reverse. In fine sandy soils and light clay soils, drainage systems often demonstrata poor operation only shortly after installation,
Fields of Study & Subjects
Soil erosion and sediment transport
