Experimental study on stress-dependent soil water characteristic curve of a recompacted expansive soil

, 2013
In order to investigate stress-dependent soil water characteristic curve of recompacted expansive soil and the changes of soil-water characteristic under vertical stress in terms of soil fabric and pore size distribution, pressure plate tests scanning ...

Development of soil-water characteristic curve for a residual soil using triaxial and pressure-plate apparatus

, 2005
The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) of the soil found at Pussellawa landslide site is developed for a wide range of metric suction values, based on the results obtained from a series of laboratory triaxial tests on unsaturated samples.

Measurement of Soil–Water Characteristic Curve of Vegetative Soil Using Polymer-Based Tensiometer for Maintaining Environmental Sustainability

The interaction between moisture content and soil suction is commonly represented by a soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC). The direct measurement of water content can be easily achieved, but it usually requires a destructive method where the ...

Quantitative evaluation of different soil–water characteristic curve models on bare soil evaporation simulation

Geoderma
The bare soil evaporation process is the link between the atmosphere and soil surface in the hydrologic cycle and, therefore, is a key issue in many fields of hydrological sciences. The selection of different soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) models

Comparison of direct and indirect measured soil-water characteristic curves for a silty sand [PDF]

, 2017
It is time consuming and needs sophisticated testing apparatus to determine unsaturated soil properties such as hydraulic conductivity and shear strength. Therefore, engineers hesitate to use unsaturated soil properties in economical geotechnical problem

Evaluating dual porosity of pelletized diatomaceous earth using bimodal soil-water characteristic curve functions

, 2001
Soil-water characteristic curve data for specimens containing either ~1 mm or ~2 mm diameter pellets of processed diatomaceous earth are measured using a variety of methods (Tempe cell, pressure plate, filter paper, and chilled-mirror psychrometer). The

Real-time scanning curve of soil-water characteristic curve for residual soil slope

The scanning curve of the soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) represents the intermediate paths followed by soil as it transitions between the initial drying and main wetting cycles.

Water characteristic curve of soil with bimodal grain-size distribution

, 2013
Soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) is the most fundamental and important soil property in unsaturated soil mechanics. It has been used for analyzing slope stability due to the infiltration of rainfall into slopes and water flow in unsaturated ...
