Layered unsaturated soils exhibit complex mechanical and physical properties. Owing to the
roughness between unsaturated soil interfaces and the presence of irregularly distributed …

Electro-osmotic consolidation can be used as a valid and innovative technique for ground
improvement. Considering the limitation of previous studies that layered soil heterogeneity …

This paper has proposed a closed-form solution for two-dimensional (2D) plane strain
consolidation in unsaturated soils with lateral and vertical semipermeable drainage …

This paper proposes an analytical solution for 2D (two‐dimensional) consolidation of
unsaturated soil with impeded drainage boundaries by considering the combined effects of …

This work presents an upgraded one-dimensional (1D) nonlinear rheological system of soft
ground consolidation. In the system, the boundaries are characterized by the time …

Due to the presence of tiny gaps at the interface of two layers of saturated soil, water
seepage occurs at a slower rate within these gaps, resulting in laminar flow at the interface …

Time-varying loading is a frequently encountered loading type in geotechnical engineering.
As the deformation of viscoelastic soil is related to its loading history, studying the …

The boundary drainage performance controls the rate of pore water discharge in the soil and
plays an important role in the prediction of soil consolidation and settlement. Based on a …

The elastic viscoplastic properties are non‐negligible factors of clays that cause the
deviation between the theoretical and the measured values, which were rarely incorporated …

Existing solutions for analyzing one‐dimensional (1‐D) consolidation of unsaturated soil are
only derived to cater to two extreme drainage conditions (fully drained and undrained). This …
