Relationship between the matric suction and the shear strength in unsaturated soil
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2020 To understand the shear strength properties for unsaturated soil with different matric suction values, a modified triaxial test device was used. The matric suction is considered an important contributor to unsaturated shear strength properties.

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Mine‐water immersion tests reveal pronounced coal weakening (vs. minor concrete degradation), identifying coal pillars as the stability‐limiting component in composite dams. A coupled FEINN framework quantifies extreme‐pressure stability and ranks multi‐parameter designs via a normalized multi‐indicator scheme, enabling optimized dam configuration for ...

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) offers clear advantages for sustainable construction, including reduced density and improved thermal insulation. However, its mechanical and fracture behavior is difficult to characterize due to the heterogeneity and brittle crushing of porous lightweight aggregates.
