Evolution of anisotropic capillarity in unsaturated granular media within the pendular regime

Abstract While the shear behavior of granular soils is directly related to the microstructure of contacts which often leads to the coaxiality between Cauchy stress and Satake fabric tensors, it is generally accepted by the geomechanics and geotechnical engineering community that the capillary effect...
