Hydromechanical Analysis of Collapse Settlement of Loess during Field Immersion Tests: Field Investigations and Numerical Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Loess is the most well-known collapsible soil. The field immersion test is one of the effective means to assess the in situ self-weight collapsibility of soil. However, the reason why huge differences appeared in collapse ...
Thermo–Hydro–Mechanical Behavior of Unsaturated Loess Considering the Effect of Porosity and Temperature on Water Retention Properties
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Loess is featured by a metastable structure, which results in its significant volumetric decrease under self-weight pressure when subjected to the increase in moisture. The prerequisite for analyzing such a unique deformation ...
