Study on the Mechanical Properties of Red Clay under Drying‐Wetting Cycles [PDF]
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2021 To study the mechanical properties of red clay under repeated dry and wet cycle test conditions, in this paper, the disturbed red clay in an engineering area in Liuzhou, Guangxi Province, was taken as the research object. By artificially controlling different dry and wet cycles in the laboratory, a direct shear test and triaxial consolidation drainage ...

Permeability and Microstructure of a Saline Intact Loess after Dry‐Wet Cycles [PDF]
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 Influenced by both dry‐wet cycles and salt weathering, the loess will exhibit significant changes in microstructure and permeability, which threatens the stability of loess slopes. Triaxial permeability tests and industrial computed tomography (CT) scans were carried out on saline intact loess with sodium sulfate.
