The influence of rates of drying and wetting on measurements of soil water retention curves

The water retention curve is fundamental for a comprehensive description of the hydro-mechanical behaviour of unsaturated soils. The water retention testing system developed at Durham University allows direct and continuous measurement of suction using a high capacity tensiometer, water content dete...
