Theoretical modelling of coupled chemo-hydro-mechanical behaviour of unsaturated expansive clays

Expansive clays used in engineering practice are usually unsaturated and are sensitive to chemical composition of the in-pore solution. To analyse the complex coupled problems involved, an efficient mathematical model which can account for these chemo-hydro-mechanical behaviours has been developed....
