Characterization of unsaturated coarse-grained railway embankment fill: Water retention and dilatancy

Characterization of unsaturated coarse-grained railway embankment fill: Water retention and dilatancy

This study investigated the hydraulic and mechanical behaviors of unsaturated coarse-grained railway embankment fill materials (CREFMs) using a novel unsaturated large-scale triaxial apparatus equipped with the axis translation technique (ATT). Comprehensive soil-water retention and constant-suction...
