Revisiting the methods of determining hydraulic conductivity of saturated expansive clays in low-compressibility zone
The hydraulic conductivity of saturated clays is commonly determined either directly by monitoring water flux or indirectly based on Terzaghi's consolidation equation. Similar results are generally obtained from the two methods, but sometimes a significant difference can be observed, in particu...
