Study on the effect of water on the shear behavior and microstructure of red mudstone

Abstract Red mudstone has significant hydrophilicity, that is hard at low water contents and soft and unstable at high water contents, and understanding the whole range of water content on the shear behavior of red mudstone is critical for evaluating red beds landslide stability. However, the deteri...
