Model for Lateral Swelling Pressure in Unsaturated Expansive Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Unsaturated expansive soils annually cause major economic losses and structural damages to foundations and earthen structures, primarily due to exhibiting large amounts of swelling and shrinkage when subjected to variations ...
Predicting Resilient Modulus of Unsaturated Subgrade Soils Considering Effects of Water Content, Temperature, and Hydraulic Hysteresis
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The resilient modulus, MR, of subgrade soils is an important parameter in design and analysis of pavements. Subgrade soils are often unsaturated and can experience a wide range of suctions due to changes in water content ...
Levee Fragility Behavior under Projected Future Flooding in a Warming Climate
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Adaptation to climate change requires careful evaluation of infrastructure performance under future climatic extremes. This study demonstrates how a multidisciplinary approach integrating geotechnical engineering, hydrology, ...
