Abstract:We present a rigorous homogenization approach to modelling piping ow erosion in a spatially heterogeneous soil. The aim is to provide a justication to a formal homogenization approach to piping ow erosion with deposition in a spatially heterogeneous soil. Under the assumption that the soil domain is perforated periodically with cylindrical repeating microstructure, we begin by proving that a solution to the proposed set of microscopic equations exist. Two-scale convergence is then used to study the asymptotic … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
