Constitutive model of single root system's resistance to tensile stress - taking Pinus tabulaeformis, Betula platyphylla, Quercus mongolica and Larix gmelinii as experimental objects.
A constitutive model for the stress-strain relationship of single forest root system was developed in order to provide theoretical foundations for the mechanisms of soil-reinforcement by root system and offer a reliable basis for the analysis of root tensile strength character. This study started a...
