Creep behavior of unsaturated reticulate red clay under matric suction
KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering, 2018 In order to study unsaturated creep behaviors of reticulate red clay under matric suction, a series of isotropic creep tests with different matric suction level were carried out by using Geotechnical Digital Systems (GDS) unsaturated apparatus. Results indicate that creep strain caused by matric suction increases with the increasing of matric suction ...

Pile-Soil Interaction in Unsaturated Soil Conditions [PDF]
, 2014 The degree of saturation has been proven to significantly affect geotechnical engineering designs for foundations. The changes in water content will influence the way the soil behaves, including its strength and stiffness parameters.

Variation in principal curvature of air-water interface inside and outside shear band of dense unsaturated sand [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesTriaxial compression tests were conducted on dense unsaturated sand specimens under constant suction and constant water content conditions. X-ray micro-computed tomography (CT) scans were performed at different deformation stages to visualize the ...

Capillary geochemistry in non-saturated zone of soils. Water content and geochemical signatures. [PDF]
, 2008 International audienceThe unsaturated zone (UZ) retains aqueous solutions against gravity by capillary forces. This suction state corresponds to a decreasing internal pressure of the water, which modifies its thermodynamic properties.
