Small and Large Strain Monitoring of Unsaturated Soil Behavior by Means of Multiaxial Testing and Shear Wave Propagation
The deformation and strength behavior of dry and saturated soils is controlled by the effective stresses as defined by Terzaghi. However, Terzaghis definition of the effective stresses fails for unsaturated soils, as capillarity force influence is also important. The effects of capillarity forces in...
