PorousFlowRelativePermeabilityVG
This Material calculates relative permeability of a phase using the van Genuchten model
The relative permeability of the phase is where the effective saturation is
A cut version of the van Genuchten expression is also offered, which is almost definitely indistinguishable experimentally from the original expression: Here the cubic is chosen so that its value and derivative match the van Genuchten expression at , and so that it is unity at .

Evaluations on element qps will be skipped
Default:NONE
