Modelling of wetting tests for a natural pyroclastic soil
The so-called wetting-induced collapse is one of the most common problems associated with unsaturated soils. This paper applies the Modified Pastor-Zienkiewicz model (MPZ) to analyse the wetting behaviour of undisturbed specimens of an unsaturated air-fall volcanic (pyroclastic) soil originated from...
