Shear Strength of Compacted Clays as Affected by Mineral Content and Wet-Dry Cycles

The behaviors of high-plasticity clays depend largely on the clay mineral content. Recently, it has been observed that sudden slope failures of most clay slopes occur in regions pronounced with repeated rainfall and sunny climate. The reason for this is still unclear. Examining the effect of clay mi...
