Role of Unsaturated Soil Properties in The Development of Slope Susceptibility Map

, 2020
A slope susceptibility map which incorporates unsaturated soil mechanics is essential to the accurate location of areas susceptible to rainfall-induced slope failures.

Leaching and transport of PFAS from aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) in the unsaturated soil at a firefighting training facility under cold climatic conditions.

Journal of Contaminant Hydrology, 2019
The contaminant situation at a Norwegian firefighting training facility (FTF) was investigated 15 years after the use of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) based aqueous film forming foams (AFFF) products had ceased.

Opium trade and use during the Late Bronze Age: Organic residue analysis of ceramic vessels from the burials of Tel Yehud, Israel

Archaeometry, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Organic residue analysis was conducted on various vessels from burials at Tel Yehud, Israel. The analyses led to new reliable evidence for the presence of opioid alkaloids and their decomposition products. This research revitalizes a decades‐old discussion on the presence and function of the opium trade across a cultural region of utmost ...

Numerical analysis of evolution of the unsaturated soil micro-structure with capillary action during compression

Shuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2022
Using numerical method to investigate the evolution of micro-structure in unsaturated soil is helpful to explain their physical mechanical. However, the evolution of micro-structure in unsaturated soil is not clear.

Practical Approach for Assessing Wetting-Induced Slope Failure

Applied Sciences, 2023
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 ...

Unsaturated soils [PDF]

, 2010
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.

Permeability Functions for Unsaturated Soils

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 1997
This paper examines the three categories of permeability functions for unsaturated soils, including empirical, macroscopic, and statistical models. The theoretical backgrounds and performance of each category are examined against various experimental data.

Mechanical behavior and constitutive modelling of expansive soils under conditions of wetting and low confining stress

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
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.
