Wetting-induced instabilities: triggering mechanism and predisposing factors
This paper addresses the topic of unsaturated soil stability focusing on wetting-induced instability mechanisms occurring before the attainment of the classical shear failure. The study was conducted by simulating a series of imbibition tests on elementary soil volumes by controlling water contentan...
