Effect of Drying and Wetting SWCCs on Unsaturated Soil Slopes

open access: yes, 2021
The soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) exhibits hysteresis. It is the relation between soil water and soil suction. Desorption (drying) and sorption (wetting) can be used to obtain SWCC. The suction is different in drying and wetting SWCC paths.

Influence of Drying–Wetting Cycles on the Water Retention and Microstructure of Residual Soil

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
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]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
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 ...

Dynamic strength of fly ash-modified loess subgrade under influences of drying-wetting cycle

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020
The traffic load and the drying-wetting cycle have an important influence on the strength characteristics and stability of fly ash-modified loess subgrade. To illustrate the influences of drying-wetting cycle on the strength of the fly ash-modified loess,

Direct shear testing on unsaturated silty soils to investigate the effects of drying and wetting on shear strength parameters at low suction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A modified conventional direct shear device was used to measure unsaturated shear strength of two silty soils at low suction values (0 ~ 50 kPa) that were achieved by following drying and wetting paths of soil water characteristic curves (SWCCs).
