During the long-term operation of a deep geological repository, the buffer/backfill properties
of compacted bentonite could be affected by the chemistry of the infiltrated porewater. In this …

Soil suction, an important parameter in the safety and risk assessment of geotechnical and
green infrastructures, is greatly affected by plants and weather in the shallow soil layers of …

The wide engineered application of compacted expansive soils necessitates understanding
their behavior under field conditions. The results of this study demonstrate how seasonal …

Abstract In China, Gaomiaozi (GMZ) bentonite has been selected as a suitable buffer
material for high-level nuclear waste disposal. Groundwater in Beishan area, which has …

It is well recognised that the compressibility of unsaturated soils is affected by soil structure.
However, the effects of soil aggregation and pore structure on the compressibility behaviour …

Abstract A new Monash–Peradeniya–Kodikara (MPK) generalised model is presented,
embodying a volumetric yield surface (ie loaded compaction yield surface) derived from …

Variation of moisture is an inevitable process in natural soil, which influences engineering
properties significantly. Mastering the evolution characteristics of soil structure in …

The small strain shear modulus (G max) is an important parameter in geodynamic problems.
To predict the G max of unsaturated soils that are normally subjected to complex drying and …
