Long-term decay of the water pressure in the osmotic tensiometer

Matric suction is an important state variable required for the assessment of unsaturated soil properties. Tensiometers are commonly used for direct matric suction measurement but have a limited measuring range up to 90 kPa due to the cavitation problem. Osmotic tensiometer (OT) can improve the measu...
