Unsaturated soil mechanics in geotechnical practice /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

"Soil will, either seasonally or occasionally, pass from the unsaturated to the saturated state and even from unsaturation to dryness. The theory of unsaturated soils is dealt with, including its application to natural undisturbed soils and compacted soils. Application of the theory to soil-lik...
