Numerical study on bearing capacity of a pile group next to a slope in unsaturated soils [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 The bearing capacity of a pile group mostly depends on parameters of the soil shear strength affected by the soil-water characteristics, especially in unsaturated soils.

A structural bounding surface constitutive model for unsaturated soils and its verification
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022 Most soils have both unsaturated and structural properties. The establishment of a constitutive model of unsaturated soils considering the structure is of great significance for analyzing the mechanical properties of unsaturated soils.

A Numerical Model to Study the Response of Piles under Lateral Loading in Unsaturated Soils
Geosciences, 2021 The interaction between a laterally loaded pile and the surrounding soil is typically limited to the shallower soil layer. Often, this zone is above the water table and therefore the interaction takes place under unsaturated conditions.
