Impact of Suction on the Near Surface Lateral Soil Response using Centrifuge Modeling [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Recent studies have shown that unsaturated soils lead to greater lateral pile capacity. This study aims to experimentally assess how suction stress affects the lateral response of piles in unsaturated cohesionless soil.

A Unified Two Independent Stress Variable Approach to Moisture-Change-Induced Unsaturated Soil Volume Change [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 In 1968, Matyas and Radhakrishna introduced the concept of the state surface, demonstrating that unsaturated soil volume change is dependent on two independent stress state variables, net total stress and suction.

Identifying true shrinkage limit of clay by updating experiments in Chinese standard GB/T 50123—2019
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022 The methods to determine the true shrinkage limit of clay are proposed by updating both the testing procedure and the data processing of the shrinkage limit and shrinkage test methods in the Chinese standard for geotechnical testing method (GB/T 50123 ...

Effect of the optimum and residual moisture content on the strength characteristics of unsaturated sands [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Soil exists mainly in unsaturated conditions. Therefore, accurate prediction of the soil shear strength for unsaturated conditions also becomes equally important for the geotechnical design of earth structures.
