Abstract: Unsaturated soil shear strength is a crucial and useful parameter for predicting geostructure stability, soil erosion, seasonal variation, and land management. Unsaturated shear strength measurement, however, is frequently ...

Abstract: The bearing resistance of energy piles in the presence of temperature effects has not been thoroughly investigated, preventing the perfecting of energy pile design methods. Quantifying the relationship between soil suction ...

Abstract: The unsaturated geological layers are a common site of many engineering projects; however, it is challenging to predict their water retention capacity and shear strength. Through analysis of soils with dual-porosity ...

Abstract: One of the most crucial tasks in the design, control, and construction of urban deep excavations is ensuring the safety of the existing underground infrastructure. Deformation and settlement created by excavation may damage ...
