Numerical and Physical Modeling of Cone Penetration in Unsaturated Soils and Numerical Simulation of Fracture Propagation in Shale Rock during Brazilian Test

<p> Partially water saturated condition in soils may change the cone penetration resistance comparing with that of dry or saturated conditions. This effect was investigated in this study using numerical finite element modeling and experimental centrifuge testing. The results showed suction in...
