Consolidation theories for saturated-unsaturated soils and numerical simulation of residential buildings on expansive soils

Consolidation theories for saturated-unsaturated soils and numerical simulation of residential buildings on expansive soils

The coupled and uncoupled consolidation theories for saturated-unsaturated soils have been discussed. A new method for constructing the constitutive surfaces for saturated-unsaturated soils has been proposed. The consolidation processes for saturated-unsaturated soils have been explained by thermody...
