DOI: 10.1016/j.compgeo.2021.104272
Abstract: Abstract This paper established a coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical mechanism in view of the soil particle rearrangement for saturated/unsaturated soils under the framework of granular thermodynamics. This model avoids concepts such as the flow rule, yield function,… read more here.

DOI: 10.5539/jas.v10n12p126
Abstract: Soil water retention curve (SWRC) is an important soil attribute because it is a soil quality indicator and is fundamental to study water dynamics in the soil-plant-atmosphere system. Since the conventional SWRC determination is laborious… read more here.
