Experimental determination of the hysteretic behaviour of soil-water retention curve of silty sands
Shear behaviour of unsaturated silty sands is closely linked to the soil-water retention curve (SWRC). The SWRC depends beside the pore structure mainly on the hydraulic path. It hence shows hysteretic behaviour for wetting and drying cycles. This paper presents the results of the experimental deter...
