Study of Infiltration into Partially Saturated Clay Soil Railway Embankment
Abstract This paper will involve using commercial software Vadose/W to model this process and using a variable flow boundary at the ground surface to represent infiltration by rainfall into partially saturated clay soil railway embankment. To investigate the influence that variations in rainfall and soil water properties, such as the saturated soil permeability, the rate of progression of the wetting front, and the implications this may have for continued slope stability. Suitable parameters and boundary conditions for the FEA model has been assumed base on the currently existing field data. Further improvements of currently existing railway embankments will be suggested to decrease the probability of slope failure caused by the rainfall infiltration of into partially saturated soil railway embankment.
