OverviewThis book provides a fundamental understanding of the behaviour of unsaturated soil. It introduces the concepts of soil suction and explains it in terms of the basic ideas of surface tension and osmosis. The process of desaturation is examined and the ways in which it can come about are detailed. This book should be of interest to postgraduates and researchers in geotechnical engineering; and to practising geotechnical engineers. Full Product DetailsAuthor: D. G.
