A canal is cut into a soil with a stratigraphy shown in the figure. Assuming flow takes place laterally and vertically through the sides of the canal and vertically below the canal, determine the equivalent permeability in horizontal direction. Determine the equivalent permeability in the vertical directions. Calculate the ratio of the equivalent horizontal permeability to the equivalent vertical permeability for flow through the sides of the canal.
Consider two horizonal soil layers, each is isotropic, the upper layer 1 is sitting directly on the top of bottom layer 2.
