Estimation of hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated soils under entire suction range
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022 The hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated soils controls their water flow. Most numerical softwares adopt the hydraulic conductivity function (HCF) as the input parameter to simulate the water flow in unsaturated soils.

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.

UH model for ideal expansive unsaturated soils
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2023 The expansive unsaturated soils are characterised by the behaviour of volume increase and strength reduction during wetting, which may cause nonuniform foundation settlement and further result in cracking of overlaying buildings.

Unsaturated soils in the context of tropical soils
Soils and Rocks, 2021 Abstract The practice of geotechnical engineering in tropical climate regions must consider the use of unsaturated soil concepts. However, these concepts must also take into account the specific behavior traits of tropical soils, particularly those related to soil aggregation, pore structure, and mineralogy.

Strength Theory Model of Unsaturated Soils with Suction Stress Concept
Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2013 A theoretical model is developed for describing the strength property of unsaturated soils. The model is able to predict conveniently the strength changes of unsaturated soils undergoing repeated changes of water content. Suction stress is adopted in the
