Unsaturated soil mechanics for solving geotechnical problems

Many geotechnical problems involve unsaturated soils. Some unsaturated soils are also called problematic soils when saturated soil mechanics cannot fully describe the behavior of these soils. Negative pore-water pressure or soil suction in unsaturated soil controls the shear strength and hydraulic p...
