Influence of Drying–Wetting Cycles on the Water Retention and Microstructure of Residual Soil
Due to frequent changes in the humid and hot environment, the residual soil with a particle-size distribution (PSD) from gravel to clay experiences multiple drying–wetting cycles.

Evolution of the soil water retention curve based on plastic volumetric strain [PDF]
The water retention behaviour of soil can be defined as the relationship between the degree of saturation (or water content) and suction at a constant temperature, which characterises the hydraulic behaviour of unsaturated soils, normally represented as ...

Effect of weathering on disintegration and shear strength reduction of clay shale [PDF]
Frequent and strong atmosphere and hydrosphere reactions accelerate weathering of clay shale. This study was carried out to determine the effects of frequent natural drying and wetting-drying cycles on clay shales in every 8 days until the value of ...

The effect of Persian Gulf tidal zone exposure on durability of mixes containing silica fume and blast furnace slag [PDF]
In this research the performance of cement paste and concrete mixes incorporating 7% and 10% of silica fume (SF) as a cement replacement was investigated in three exposure conditions. The results showed that plain type II portland cement performed better

Effect of wetting-drying cycles on soil desiccation cracking behaviour
Better understanding the desiccation cracking process is essential in analysing drought effects on soil hydraulic and mechanical properties through consideration of the atmosphere-ground interaction.
