A Numerical Simulation of Moisture Reduction in Fine Soil Subgrade with Wicking Geotextiles
A new wicking geotextile is proposed to control the water content of fine-grained soil subgrade. By comparing the spatial distribution of volumetric water content and matric suction before and after the installation of the wicking geotextile, the effectiveness of the geotextile in controlling the su...
