Contribution of Osmotic Suction to Suction Stress for Unsaturated Saline Clay and Its Suction Stress Characteristic Curve
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The presence of water and salt transport in complex hydrochemical environments allows for continuous changes in the suction state of clay (matric suction, osmotic suction, and their interactions). The interaction between ...
A Closed-Form Equation for Effective Stress of Unsaturated Saline Clay Considering Capillary and Osmosis Effects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The interaction mechanism between matric suction and osmotic suction was clarified through the analysis of certain physicochemical effects on unsaturated saline clay. The Young–Laplace equation for unsaturated saline clay ...
