Variability in moisture content is a common condition in natural soils. It influences soil
properties significantly. A comprehensive understanding of the evolution of soil …

The effects of wetting-drying (WD) cycles on the desiccation-induced cracking of a fat clay
(CH) as well as the role of soil suction in the evolution of soil strength, were investigated …

The behaviour of an expansive soil was studied through a number of experiments involving
cycles of wetting and drying. Laboratory tests were conducted on compacted samples of an …

Many civil engineering projects are related to hydromechanical behavior of unsaturated
soils over a wide suction range, which was investigated by imposing suctions on clayey silt …

The traditional disposal methods of paper/wood industry raise serious environmental
concerns, thus, requires innovative and productive ideas to manage such waste. This article …

In this study, the influence of cyclic wetting and drying on swelling behavior of polymer-
stabilized expansive clays has been investigated. Such a study is required to assess the …

The paper presents the results of an experimental study on the effects of the initial water
content and dry density on the soil–water retention curve and the shrinkage behavior of a …

A formalism for double structure hydromechanical coupled modelling of aggregated
unsaturated soils has been developed. Independent coupled hydromechanical models are …

A good understanding of the soil strength profile under wetting–drying (W–D) cycles is
essential when studying the hydro-mechanical response of soils under the effects of …
