Analytical and comprehensive, this stateoftheart book, examines the mechanics and engineering of unsaturated soils, as well as explaining the laboratory and field testing and research that are the logical basis of this modern approach to safe construction in these hazardous geomaterials; putting them into a logical framework for civil engineering and design.The book:illustrates the importance of statedependent soilwater characteristic curveshighlights modern soil testing of unsaturated soil behaviour, including accurate measurement of total volume changes and the measurement of anisotropic soil stiffness at very small strainsintroduces an advanced statedependent elastoplastic constitutive model for both saturated and unsaturated soildemonstrates the power of numerical analysis which is at the heart of modern soil mechanicsstudies and simulates the behaviour of loose fills from unsaturated to saturated states; explains the difference between strainsoftening and static liquefaction, and describes real applications in unsaturated soil slope engineeringincludes purposedesigned field trials to capture the effects of two independent stress variables, and reports comprehensive measurements of soil suction, water contents, stress changes and ground deformations in both bare and grassed slopesintroduces a new conjunctive surface and subsurface transient flow model for realistically analysing rainfall infiltration in unsaturated soil slopes, and illustrates the importance of the flow model in slope engineering.Including constitutive and numerical modelling, this volume will interest students and professionals studying or working in the areas of geotechnical engineering and the built environment.
