Effect of matrix suction on the shear strength characteristics of reinforced granite residual soil
Introduction: The soil in geogrid-reinforced structures is typically unsaturated, with the shear strength provided by both the matrix suction and the reinforced body.

Matrix Suction Evaluation of Soil-Rock Mixture Based on Electrical Resistivity [PDF]
The soil-rock mixture is an important construction material in practical engineering. Its physical properties, especially soil-water properties, are particularly important for on-site construction, while both matrix suction and electrical resistivity in unsaturated soils depend on the magnitude of moisture content, and a certain relationship can be ...

Role of microfabric in matrix suction of residual soils
Residually derived red soils are present in Bangalore District of Karnataka State. The red soils of Bangalore District are generally unsaturated with bulk of the specimens having degree of saturation $(S_{r})$ from 20% to 70%. In unsaturated soils, pores with small radii act as capillary tubes and retain water in a state of reduced pressure with ...

Continuous Measurement of Matrix Suction and Degree of Saturation of Unsaturated Soils with a New Soil-Water Retention Curve Device [PDF]
The relationship between matrix suction and degree of saturation within the soil is a fundamental parameter in studying many behavioral aspects of unsaturated soils and is referred to as the soil-water retention curve (SWRC).

ABSTRACT Huafan University is located on the slope of the Ta-Lun Mountain area. The slope surface in this area is a colluvium soil cover layer with loose non-uniform particles, with high permeability. Because it is situated above a rapidly changing water table, the pore water pressure varies dynamically, depending on the weather conditions.

Synthesis of plastic Zr-based bulk metallic glass matrix composites by the copper-mould suction casting and the Bridgman solidification [PDF]
Zr-based bulk metallic glass matrix composites with the composition of Zr56.2Ti13.8Nb5.0Cu6.9Ni5.6Be12.(5) were synthesized by the copper-mould suction casting and the Bridgman solidification. The composite, containing a well-developed flowery beta-Zr dendritic phase, was obtained by the Bridgman solidification with the withdrawal velocity of 0.8 mm/s ...
