Experimental Investigation on Suffusion Characteristics of Cohesionless Soils Along Horizontal Seepage Flow Under Controlled Vertical Stress

Suffusion is one of the main modes of internal erosion leading to selective erosion and gradual migration of fine soil particles through the voids of soil skeleton formed by coarse soil particles under seepage flow. Suffusion may induce deterioration and even failure of hydraulic geo-structures, suc...
