The influence of suction changes on the stiffness of railway formation

open access: yes, 2011
Despite compacted soils being unsaturated, geotechnical design is predominantly based on saturated soils,despite it being known that differences exist between the behaviour of saturated and unsaturated soils.Suction in soils has been shown to increase ...

Water characteristic curve and shear strength of soil with bimodal characteristics

open access: yes, 2012
Rainfall-induced slope failures frequently occur around the world. One of the controlling parameters in slope stability assessment is shear strength of soil. Shear strength of soil is usually affected by soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC).

Variability in soil-water characteristic curve

open access: yes, 2014
Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) is an important property of unsaturated soil and is commonly used for estimation of other unsaturated soil properties such as permeability function, shear strength and volume change.

Effect of confining pressure on soil-water characteristic curves

open access: yes, 2013
Drying and wetting soil-water characteristic curves at different net confining pressure were obtained for two sandy soils using Tempe cell and Permeability cell.
