RISSoil Shrinkage: Underlying Mechanisms Revealed by Intergranular Stress
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: When drying from a fully saturated state, soil transits from saturation to unsaturation, activating the effects of capillarity, adsorption, and osmosis. Traditionally, these effects have been elusive in modeling soil ...
Constitutive Model of Unsaturated Soils Considering the Effect of Intergranular Physicochemical Forces
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Soil Freezing and Soil Water Retention Characteristics: Connection and Solute Effects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The relation between the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) and the soil freezing characteristic curve (SFCC) is investigated based on the similarity between the freezing/thawing and drying/wetting behaviors of soils. ...
Determination of Hydraulic Properties of Unsaturated Soils Based on Nonequilibrium Multistep Outflow Experiments

Experimental Investigation on the Influence of Thermochemical Effect on the Pore–Water Status in Expansive Soil
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The pore-water status, including adsorptive and capillary water, in expansive clay with different dry densities was investigated under the effect of temperature and saline solution via the nuclear magnetic resonance ...
