Three-dimensional slope stability analysis incorporating unsaturated soil properties in Singapore
Georisk: Assessment and Management of Risk for Engineered Systems and Geohazards, 2020 Rainfall-induced slope failure is a natural hazard that occurs in many parts of the world. To identify areas where rainfall-induced slope failure may potentially occur in Singapore, a slope susceptibility map of needs to be developed.

Modelling large deformation problems in unsaturated soils [PDF]
, 2016 Applications of unsaturated soil mechanics often involve large deformations and displacements. This is the case of collapse behaviour of low density soils or the unrestrained swelling of expansive clays.

Revisiting the thermodynamics of hardening plasticity for unsaturated soils [PDF]
, 2010 A thermodynamically consistent extension of the constitutive equations of saturated soils to unsaturated conditions is often worked out through the use a unique 'effective' interstitial pressure, accounting equivalently for the pressures of the ...

On-sample water content measurement for a complete local monitoring in triaxial testing of unsaturated soils [PDF]
, 2012 To provide a complete local monitoring of the state of an unsaturated soil sample during triaxial testing, a local water content measurement device was adapted to a triaxial device comprising the measurement of local displacements (Hall effect ...

Determination of Soil-Water Characteristic Curves of Unsaturated Sandy Soils Using Membrane Filter with Stainless Wire Mesh [PDF]
, 2009 Soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is an important soil function in an unsaturated soil mechanics field for design and analyses of any unsaturated earth structures. Determination of SWCC is not easy and more so time consuming. Generally, ceramic disc

Rainfall-induced differential settlements of foundations on heterogeneous unsaturated soils [PDF]
, 2013 This study stochastically investigates the rainfall-induced differential settlement of a centrally loaded, rigid strip foundation on an unsaturated soil with spatially varying values of either preconsolidation stress or porosity.
