An Experimental Study on Soil Water Characteristics and Hydraulic Conductivity of Compacted Soils
The importance of applying unsaturated soil mechanics concepts to geotechnical engineering design has been widely recognized. Soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) and hydraulic conductivity function (HCF) are vital soil properties that govern engineering behavior of unsaturated soils. In this …
