A Unified Elastoplastic Model of Unsaturated Soils Considering Capillary Hysteresis
Figure 7
Simulated and measured results of wetting-collapse experiments on Pearl clay: (a) stress paths adopted; (b) relation between and ; (c) variation of total volumetric strain with matric suction during the wetting process D-E; (d) variation of the degree of saturation with net pressure for Path A-B-D-E.
