DOI: 10.1007/s12665-017-7127-2
Abstract: Landslides are mainly triggered by decrease in the matric suction with deepening the wetting band by rainfall infiltrations. This paper reports rainfall-induced landslides in partially saturated soil slopes through a field study. A comprehensive analysis… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jrmge.2021.01.002
Abstract: Abstract To better understand the salinity effect on the compaction behaviour of soil, standard Proctor compaction test was conducted on soil samples with different salinities. Matric suction and small-strain shear modulus, Gmax, were determined and… read more here.
