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 ...

Mechanical behaviors and constitutive model for unsaturated soils
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2023 The ground surface soils are almost unsaturated, especially in arid and semi-arid areas, and the engineering problems of unsaturated soils cannot be properly explained and dealt with by the saturated soil mechanics and the relevant experimental means ...

A numerical technique for modeling the behavior of single piles in unsaturated soils [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2021 Pile foundations are widely used in both saturated and unsaturated soils. In certain scenarios, these foundations are subjected to combined vertical and lateral loads.
