Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Consider a site with layered soils of different permeabilities. How would you use the Laplace equation to design a drainage system that effectively manages stormwater?
💡 Hint: Think about how you can adjust the flow path based on permeability values of each layer.
Question 2
Research a case where incorrect permeability measurements led to a major civil engineering failure. What lessons were learned?
💡 Hint: Consider historical dam failures related to soil and fluid interactions.
