Abstract: A method to enhance water flow through a medium includes positioning like poles of two magnets adjacent to create a magnetic flux field at a region corresponding to a position at which the like poles are adjacent, maintaining pressure sufficient to at least partially overcome a quiescent-repulsive force between the adjacent like poles to amplify the magnetic flux field at the region, flowing water through the amplified magnetic flux field at the region at a flow rate selected based on a natural frequency related to a medium through which the water is to flow, the flowing inducing a pulse in the water having a frequency depending on the selected flow rate, and transmitting the water carrying the pulse at the frequency to the medium to produce resonance with the natural frequency of the medium, the resonance causing a decrease in a compaction of the medium.
