Stability and Consolidation of Sediment Tailings Incorporating Unsaturated Soil Mechanics
Tailing dams are commonly used to safely store tailings without damaging the environment. Sand tailings (also called Sediment tailings) usually have a high water content and hence undergo consolidation during their placement. As the sediment tailings are

A Unified Two Independent Stress Variable Approach to Moisture-Change-Induced Unsaturated Soil Volume Change [PDF]
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.
