Fully undrained cyclic loading simulation on unsaturated soils using an elastoplastic model for unsaturated soils

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Several researchers have reported that Bishop’s mean effective stress decreases in unsaturated soils under fully undrained cyclic loading conditions, and unsaturated soils are finally liquefied in a similar manner as saturated soils.

Modelling shear strength of compacted soils [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Compacted soils constitute most engineering projects such as earth dams, embankments, pavements, and engineered slopes because of their high shear strength and low compressibility.

Permeability Functions for Unsaturated Soils

open access: yesJournal 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.

Prediction of wetting-induced volume change behaviour of compacted unsaturated soils in the context of the MPK framework

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Compacted unsaturated soils show distinct behavioural patterns when compared with their saturated counterparts, and these behavioural patterns become more and more complex when soil is subjected to wetting, such as swelling or collapse and loss of shear ...

The Coupling Effect of Pore Water Pressure and Pore Water Gravity in Unsaturated Soils under Rainfall Condition and Its Influence on Slope Stability

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
In the study of the impact of rainfall on the unsaturated soil slope, the changes of pore water pressure and effective stress are frequently analyzed, while the loading effect caused by the change of pore water content in unsaturated soils is often ...

Role of Bimodal Water Retention Curve on the Unsaturated Shear Strength

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Changes in climatic conditions are expected globally resulting in a higher rainfall intensity and longer duration of rainfall. The increase in the rainwater infiltration into the soil contributes to many geotechnical issues, such as excessive settlement,

Comparative Study on the Field- and Lab-Based Soil-Water Characteristic Curves for Expansive Soils

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
Expansive soils are problematic and viewed as a potential hazard for buildings and structures due to swell and shrink phenomena. The damaging effect of these soils is strongly correlated with the soil-water characteristics of expansive soils present in ...

Slaking mechanisms of a mudstone and prediction of its number-size distribution considering shape evolution

open access: yesSoils and Foundations
The wide distribution of mudstone poses challenges to efficient construction and safe long-term maintenance of infrastructure, primarily due to its susceptibility to slaking.
