Soil Retention Curve Spreadsheet
Soil Retention Curve Spreadsheet
(OP)
Hello there:
I'm looking for an excel spreadsheet to model Brooks-Corey equation or VG for soil retention curves. I'm trying to figure out the soil parameters such as: Qr, Qs, Yb, and lambda using the root mean square deviation. Would anyone like to share one.....thanks

I did my homework sir. I've been studying the Lu and Likos book (Unsat soils) for the past 6 months, please see attached. The problem I have in the spreadsheet with the solver is fixing the square mean error to zero to generate the correct coefficients. Have you done this before...?
Thanks

In general, I'm not drawn to unsaturated soil mechanics, 'cause I design earthworks to be weatherproof.
I would like to know how this exercise in unsaturated soil mechanics is addressing a practical design problem.
