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

Effect of hysteresis on the stability of residual soil slope
International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2019 Soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is an essential parameter in unsaturated soil mechanics. Matric suction in unsaturated residual soils changes with varying climatic conditions associated with cyclic drying-wetting conditions that result in ...

Science, 2016 Global Fresh Water If predicting the availability of water during the next century were as easy as the phrase “the wet get wetter and the dry get drier” would seem to suggest, then planning for it also would be easy. However, although that simple formulation is useful when considering latitudinal averages, detailed predictions are more difficult ...
