The application of biochar as an environmentally friendly additive for agricultural soils has recently gained significant attention. However, the influence of biochar addition on unsaturated hydraulic behavior at high suction ranges (i.e., exceeding 100 ...

Construction and Programming of Bivariate Model for Unsaturated Soil Seepage Calculation
The seepage calculation of unsaturated soil has always been an important subject in the field of geotechnical engineering, and it greatly influences the stability of geotechnical engineering.

Unsaturated soil is a form of natural soil whose pores are filled by air and water. Different from saturated soil, the microstructure of unsaturated soil consists of three phases, namely, the solid phase (soil particle), vapor phase, and liquid phase ...

Unsaturated soils in the context of tropical soils
Abstract The practice of geotechnical engineering in tropical climate regions must consider the use of unsaturated soil concepts. However, these concepts must also take into account the specific behavior traits of tropical soils, particularly those related to soil aggregation, pore structure, and mineralogy.

Cyclic behaviour of an unsaturated silty soil subjected to hydro-mechanical damage [PDF]
The dynamic behaviour of unsaturated soil subjected to cyclic loading is considered using two stress state variables, net normal stress and matric suction. Though the influence of excess pore-water pressures in fully saturated soils has been investigated

Practical Approach for Assessing Wetting-Induced Slope Failure
Ignoring the role of soil suction and implementing unsaturated soil mechanics when assessing slope stability in Indonesia is a common practice. One of the main reasons is due to the precognition that incorporating soil suction means using higher shear ...

Typical deformation and failure of expansive soils usually occur under conditions of wetting and low confining stress. However, the mechanisms of coupling between mechanical and hydrological behaviors under those conditions are still obscure.

The paper presents a comparison between compacted and reconstituted soils in terms of microstructure, and hydraulic and mechanical response. It is commonly assumed that reconstituted and compacted soils exhibit a fundamentally different behaviour due to different microstructures.
