An investigation of the influence of elevated temperatures on the thermal-hydraulic-mechanical response of unsaturated soils

This thesis presents an investigation of the influence of elevated temperatures, defined in this thesis as within the range of 70°C-200°C, on the thermal-hydraulic-mechanical response of unsaturated soils. At elevated temperatures, high pore gas pressures develop due to an increase in both dry air p...
