Stability of Expansive Soil Slopes under Wetting–Drying Cycles Based on the Discrete Element Method

Stability of Expansive Soil Slopes under Wetting–Drying Cycles Based on the Discrete Element Method

The swelling-shrinkage behavior of expansive soils under climate changes will cause the crack development, which can be destructive of expansive soil slopes. This study investigated the effect of drying/wetting cycles on the stability of an expansive soil slope using the discrete element method (DEM...
