Review of fundamental principles in modelling unsaturated soil behaviour

D Sheng - Computers and Geotechnics, 2011 - Elsevier
An unsaturated soil is a state of the soil. All soils can be partially saturated with water.
Therefore, constitutive models for soils should ideally represent the soil behaviour over …
