Unsaturated Soil Mechanics | Paperback

by Lu

Soil Mechanics is the study of how soils respond to a variety of forces, including gravity pressure, hydrological pressure, shear forces and other types of deforming pressure. It is a fundamental requisite to a wide variety of engineering applications, including foundation design and construction, earthworks construction, mining engineering, tunneling, dredging and drilling. Traditional (Saturated) soil mechanics is based on a universal assumption: that soil is either completely full of fluid (air and water) or completely empty of it. Table of Contents: State of Unsaturated Soil Fundamental Principles Material Variable Interfacial Equilibrium Capillarity Stress Phenomena State of Stress Shear Strength Suction and Earth Pressure Profiles Flow Phenomena Steady Flows Transient Flows Material Variable Measurement and Modeling Suction Measurement Hydraulic Conductivity Measurement Suction and Hydraulic Conductivity Model
