градиент на контактный выпор

Russian to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) hydraulic engineering structures

О расчетном градиенте на контактный выпор глинистых грунтов противофильтрационных элементов плотин.

Nik-On/Off (asker) Jan 17, 2017: David, контактный выпор -- это, I guess, soil heaving at the interface between components (core, filter) of a dam. градиент -- это seepage (pressure head) gradient
David Knowles Jan 17, 2017: What's a контактный выпор? Is it a contact point, or a separation vent or what? And is a градиент a gradient or a grade or a drop? Maybe that's why you're asking the question!
