An effective stress approach for hydro-mechanical coupling of unsaturated soils
E3S Web of Conferences, 2016 The simulation of the mechanical and hydraulic behaviour of soils is one of the most important tasks in soil mechanics. It is inaccurate to consider that the behaviour of saturated and unsaturated soils as if their governing laws were utterly different ...

Total and Matric Suction in Unsaturated Soil with the Existence of Different Salts Content [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2013 Soils located above the groundwater table are generally unsaturated and exhibit negative pore-water pressures. A soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) that relates the water content of a soil to matric suction is an important relationship for the ...

Influence of Suction on Capacity of Pile Foundation
Applied Sciences, 2023 In the common practice of geotechnical design, the state of soil is considered fully saturated, while recent examples show the importance of the consideration of unsaturated conditions as well due to the location of the groundwater table at deeper levels.

Theories of soil mechanics need reform and development
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018 With more than 90 years of development, the soil mechanics has become an indispensable theoretical analysis tool in geotechnical engineering. On the one hand, the soil mechanics is still a subject containing half theory and half experience, and its ...

Analysis of changes in volume and propagation of cracks in expansive soil due to changes in water content [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2020 Expansive clay soils are a problem for agriculture and engineering because they are susceptible to change in volume due to seasonal variation in water content and temperature.

Seasonal influence on cone penetration test: An unsaturated soil site example
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019 Interpretation of electric cone penetration test (CPT) based pore water pressure measurement (CPTu) is well established for soils with behavior that follows classical soil mechanics.
