PLASTIC CRACKING OF CONCRETE – THE ROLES OF OSMOTIC AND MATRIC SUCTION [PDF]
Plastic cracking of concrete is primarily attributable to desiccation by evaporation from unprotected surfaces. This causes high matric suctions to develop in the pore water in the voids adjacent to these surfaces. Dissolved salts in the pore water generate osmotic suctions. However, the effects of these suctions on the strength of plastic concrete are

Effect of Matric Suction on Monotonic and Cyclic Behaviour of a Low-Plastic Silty Soil from Sakarya Region [PDF]
Shallow soil layers subjected to seasonal wetting and drying cycles are typically located above the groundwater table and experience negative pore water pressures. Many geotechnical problems are associated with the behaviour of these soils.

Measurement of Matric Suction Using Tensiometric and Axis Translation Techniques [PDF]
Experimental equipment for the measurement of matric suction in unsaturated soils using hydraulic tensiometers and the axis translation technique share a common working principle; that is, the measurement of a pressure differential across a high air entry porous ceramic.

Assessment of Peak/Residual Failure Envelopes of Clayey Soil via Suction-controlled Ring Shear Testing [PDF]
A thorough experimental program has been undertaken to assess the suction-controlled peak and residual shear strength responses of statically compacted, moderate plasticity clayey soil over a relatively wide range of suction states.
