It is well-known that a close link exists between soil-water retention curve (SWRC) and pore
size distribution (PSD). Theoretically, mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) test simulates a …

Purpose Different compaction conditions (ie, molding water content or compaction degree is
varied) can lead to great differences in the microstructure, which has a control on the …

Estimating the contribution of capillary pressure to the effective stress is critical for studying
the mechanical and hydraulic behavior of unsaturated soils. Based on experimental …

To investigate the fractal dimension and its variation of intact and compacted loess,
consolidated-drained (CD) triaxial tests were performed to obtain intact and compacted …

Slope is susceptible to rainfall-induced failure after being damaged by earthquake. In this
study, the seepage and deformation of unsaturated slope during post-earthquake rainfall …

The evolution of dual-pore structure for compacted clays along hydro-mechanical paths
exerts considerable influences on their phenomenological behavioral properties. This study …

Compacted loess soil is used as a geo-material in many engineering projects, such as
building foundations and highway embankments. Water infiltration characteristics and post …

The soil‐water characteristic curve (SWCC) is the basis for describing seepage, strength,
and constitutive model of unsaturated soil. The existing SWCC models do not work …

The dependence of the geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) soil-water characteristic curve
(SWCC) on temperature and overburden stress are characterised experimentally. It is shown …

黄土具有明显的大孔隙结构, 浸水湿陷过程中内部孔隙不断变化, 导致其浸水过程的土水特征
曲线也动态变化. 为简便预测孔隙变化条件下黄土的土水特征曲线, 以孔隙体积函数为切入点 …
