Unsaturated soils with bimodal pore structures, such as many residual and colluvial soils,
are widespread in nature. Bimodal pore structures can noticeably influence their soil–water …

Expansive soil is prone to cracks under a drying–wetting cycle environment, which brings
many disasters to road engineering. The main purpose of this study is use coal gangue …

Existing penetration models for grouting slurry seldomly consider the relationship between
dry density and complexity of soil. A novel penetration model, in which the complexity of the …

Soil structure has been recognised as a key feature in the understanding of soil's
mechanical behaviour, and research efforts have been made trying to relate them. However …

Artificial structural soil is the best medium for simulating the structural characteristics of
undisturbed soil, which is a unique property of undisturbed soil. To figure out the …

Clay pellet mixtures are generally compressed to improve their engineering performance.
Deepening the comprehension of the mechanical properties of these mixtures in the …

This paper explores the potential of machine learning techniques to predict the soil water
retention curve based on physical characterization parameters. Results from 794 water …

Many engineering practices are carried out within the unsaturated soil. Soil-water retention
curves (SWRCs) of many soils exhibit bimodal characteristics that significantly affect strength …

The precise controlling of agglomerate dimensions within binder-treated soil remains a
challenge in embankment projects. This investigation endeavors to elucidate the influence …

Most of the volcanic soils found around the world are concentrated in regions of high
demographic and economic growth. Research shows that the drying process to which …
