A review and comparison of design methods for raft substructures on expansive soils
Shrink-swell movements of soils cause angular distortion to substructures leading to
significant damage to lightweight structures. The built environment of lightweight structures …

Hybrid discrete-continuum approach to model hydromechanical behavior of soil during desiccation
Desiccation cracking in clayey soils occurs when they lose moisture, leading to an increase
in their compressibility and hydraulic conductivity and hence a significant reduction of soil …
