This book presents a fundamental study of
scaled physical modelling of capillary phenomena at elevated
gravity and the basic knowledge of using the geotechnical
centrifuge for modelling contaminant migration in
unsaturated soils. As contaminant migration in the
unsaturated zone depends strongly on capillary forces the
basic understanding of capillary phenomena is essential in
any attempt to model contaminant behaviour in the
geotechnical centrifuge. All models used in the current
