Effect of Wet-Dry Cycling on Swelling and Hydraulic Conductivity of GCLs

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2000
Atterberg limits, free swell, and hydraulic conductivity tests were conducted to assess how wet-dry cycling affects the plasticity and swell of bentonite, and the hydraulic conductivity of geosynth...

Effect of Wet‐Dry Cycles on the Loading–Unloading Damage of Granite

Fatigue & Fracture of Engineering Materials & Structures
ABSTRACTInvestigating the effect of wet‐dry (W‐D) cycling on loading–unloading damage is crucial for ensuring the stability of granite slopes in mountainous areas prone to strong earthquakes. This study conducted a series of W‐D cycling and loading–unloading tests on granite samples, complemented by weight measurements, wave velocity assessments, and ...

THE EFFECT OF FREEZING-THAWING AND WETTING-DRYING CYCLES ON SOIL AGGREGATION

Canadian Journal of Soil Science, 1961
Three fractions: 1) natural aggregates 2 to 3 mm.; 2) aggregates < 0.25 mm. prepared by crushing 2- to 3-mm. aggregates; and 3) aggregates < 0.25 mm. obtained by sieving the dry soil, were acquired from the Waupoos silty clay loam. After five cycles of wetting and drying, and freezing and thawing, the mean weight-diameter (M.W.D.) was determined

Instrument for Wetting-Drying Cycles of Expansive Soil Under Loads

2018
In this study, an instrument is developed to study the effect of wetting-drying cycles on the shear strength of expansive soil. The testing error of the developed device is investigated as well. By using this device, the water content of soil sample can be accurately controlled, and the vertical loads at different soil depths can be simulated.

Effective stress in swelling soils during wetting drying cycles

Engineering Geology, 2016
Abstract In this study, the cyclic evolution of an effective stress parameter χ is determined for different swelling soils. This parameter can be modelled using the macro-, meso- and microscales in interaction, stemming from mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) tests.
