Stress-Dependent Soil Water Characteristic Curves of Compacted Sand–Gypsum Mixtures
The presence of calcium sulfate (CaSO4) impacts soil structure, bonding, pore size distribution, and water-holding characteristics, altering both compaction characteristics and soil water characteristic curves (SWCC).

Fractal model for bimodal soil-water characteristic curve and its application in pore classification
Most existing bimodal soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) models are derived from the empirical models for unimodal SWCC, in which the parameters have no clear physical meanings or value ranges generally.

Variability of Bimodal Soil-Water Characteristic Curves under Different Confining Pressures
Soils with two subcurves of Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) (dual porosity soils) might be found within various residual soils. Soils located in different depths have different confining pressure.

One-stage Bayesian experimental design optimization for measuring soil-water characteristic curve
The direct measurements of soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) are often costly and time-consuming. Therefore, only a limited number of test data can be obtained from a single SWCC test, based on which the estimated SWCC inevitably produces ...

A rapid method for determining the soil-water characteristic curves in the full suction range
The traditional methods for determining the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) in the full suction range always takes several months. To better guide the engineering practice with the theory of unsaturated soil mechanics, the rapid determination of ...

Soil water characteristics of coarse-grained accumulation soil and their prediction method
The unsaturated state is an important factor affecting the mechanical properties of soil. In view of the lack of researches on soil-water characteristics of coarse-grained accumulation soil, a large unsaturated coarse grained soil triaxial test system is

Effect of hysteresis on the stability of residual soil slope
Soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is an essential parameter in unsaturated soil mechanics. Matric suction in unsaturated residual soils changes with varying climatic conditions associated with cyclic drying-wetting conditions that result in ...
