Influence of water density on the water-retention curve of expansive clays
Géotechnique, 2012There is increasing evidence from researchers on clay mineralogy that the density of water attached to clay minerals may be greater than 1·0 Mg/m3. This fact becomes especially evident in compacted highly expansive clays close to water saturation. This kind of material is being considered in the design of engineered barriers for radioactive waste ...

On the fractal behaviour of water retention curves
2011Water retention curve (WRC) is analyzed by means of the fractal geometry approach. Three models accounting for the fractal distribution of either the pore and solid phase of unsaturated porous media have been considered. By using data collected during a field scale internal drainage, we determine the functional relationship between the WRC, and the ...

Pedotransfer functions for the soil water retention curve
2018Pedotransfer functions allow prediction of the soil hydraulic characteristics from basic soil data. In this study pedotransfer functions were developed in order to obtain three specific points of the soil water retention curve: field capacity, wilting point and maximum capacity, which were considered to be correspondent to the water held in soil ...
