Optical shrinkage curve characterization as a tool for assessing cyclic wetting-drying effects on hydraulic conductivity of fine-grained soils [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Understanding shrinkage behaviour in soft soils is essential for assessing structural and hydraulic stability under environmental stress. This study applies a shrinkage-curve-based method to evaluate soil behaviour before and after cyclic wetting-drying.
