Repeat Exercise 14.2 using the finite difference method.
Exercise 14.2
A sheet pile wall supporting 6 m of water is shown in Figure P14.2.
(a) Draw the flow net.
(b) Determine the flow rate if k = 0.0019 cm/s.
(c) Determine the pore water pressure distributions on the upstream and downstream faces of the wall. (d) Would piping occur if e = 0.55?
