In spite of the wet weather and arctic blast, much of the South remains in drought conditions. Planning your garden with drought-resistant flowers, such as the Mojave Red, brings on the glow.
This phenomenon of soil behaviour can be included in the Hardening Soil model by means of a dilatancy cut-off. In order to specify this behaviour, the initial void ratio, e i n i t {\displaystyle e_{init}} , and the maximum void ratio, e m a x {\displaystyle e_{max}} , of the material must be entered as general parameters.
