The role of unsaturated soil property functions in the practice of unsaturated soil mechanics

The implementation of unsaturated soil mechanics into engineering practice is dependent, to a large degree, upon an ability to predict nonlinear, unsaturated soil property functions. Such unsaturated soil property functions as the soil-water characteristic curve, the shrinkage curve, the permeabilit...
