Experimental and numerical analysis of soil desiccating cracks in compacted and non-compacted specimens
This paper presents the results and analysis of two cracking tests carried on specimens of silty clay. One specimen was prepared in slurry conditions without applying energy and the other specimen was compacted. They were dried in an environmental chamber at a constant temperature and relative humid...
