Water meadows in river valleys are a source of very valuable forage. Due to their specificity, an appropriate approach water management is required. This study assessed the impact reclamation traditional gravity irrigation system, aimed at saving and reducing loss from through controlled drainage. The main purpose this was evaluate investment drainage system restoration context improving yield ...

We examine the effects of capillarity and gravity in a model of one-dimensional imbibition of an incompressible liquid into a deformable porous material. We focus primarily on a capillary rise problem but also discuss a capillary/gravitational drainage configuration in which capillary and gravity forces act in the same direction. Models in both cases can be formulated as nonlinear free-boundary...
