Numerical Experiments for Surfactant Infiltration in the Vadose Zone to Demonstrate Concentration-Dependent Capillarity, Viscosity, and Sorption Characteristics
Surfactants (i.e., solutes that reduce the surface tension of water) exist in the subsurface either naturally or are introduced to the subsurface due to anthropogenic activities (e.g., agricultural purposes, environmental remediation strategies). Surfactant-induced changes in surface tension, contac...
