Study on the cohesive shear characteristics and intrinsic modelling of the root–tailing soil interface of Amorpha fruticosa

Abstract To study the soil consolidation effect of shrub plant roots on tailings soil and to explore the frictional characteristics of plant roots on tailings soil, three experimental conditions of the root–soil interface were established by using a modified indoor direct shear instrument with binde...
