Evaluation of Soil-Water Characteristic Curve and Pore-Size Distribution of Fine-Grained Soils

open access: yes, 2022
A soil’s physical properties, mineral types, and pore structure significantly influence the shape and properties of the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC).

Estimation of the Soil–Water Characteristic Curve from Index Properties for Sandy Soil in China

open access: yes
The soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) is an important parameter of unsaturated soil, and almost all the engineering characteristics of unsaturated soil are more or less related to the SWCC.

Soil–water characteristic curves of Singapore residual soils

open access: yes, 2001
Soil–water characteristic curves were obtained for a number of Singapore residual soil samples. Soil samples were obtained from the two main residual soil formations, the Jurong sedimentary formation and the Bukit Timah granitic formation, at various ...

SUCTION MEASUREMENTS AND WATER RETENTION IN UNSATURATED SOILS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Techniques for testing unsaturated soils have been investigated by the author where the measurement and control of parameters were undertaken directly. Suction was measured and controlled with a new high suction tensiometer and water content through mass

Modelling the Soil-Water Characteristic Curve of Structured and Recomposed Hard Soils - Soft Rocks

open access: yes, 2011
The soil-water characteristic curve plays the major role in describing both the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour of unsaturated soils. In the present study the Fredlund and Xing and van Genuchten equations have been used to model the soil-water ...

Effects of organic content on soil-water characteristic curve and soil shrinkage

open access: yes, 2021
Organic matters commonly exist in the subsoil within the tree rooting zones. The organic content of soil has been known to affect soil properties. In this study, the soil organic contents at various locations around trees were investigated and found to ...

Relationship between soil - water characteristic curve and permeability of soil

open access: yes, 2012
Soil – water characteristic curve is an important property that controls behavior of soil such as permeability. A theoretical model for predicting soil – water characteristic curve during drying and wetting processes is developed and verified with ...

Soil- Water Characteristic Curve Model-Silty Sand Soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The implementation of unsaturated soil mechanics into engineering practice is dependent, to a large extent, upon the ability to estimate unsaturated soil property functions. The soil-water characteristic curve is the basis for estimating the permeability

Model Modification of the Soil–Water Characteristic Curve of Unsaturated Weak Expansive Soil

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study evaluates the impact of compaction on the soil–water characteristic curve of unsaturated remodeled weakly expansive soils by assessing changes in soil pore structure resulting from variations in compaction.

Experimental study on soil-water characteristic curve of expensive soil considering net normal stress

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018
The expansive soil is a kind of special soil with swell-shrinking, fractured and over-consolidated properties. In engineering construction, the expansive soil is generally under unsaturated state and complex applied stress environment. It is practical to
