Unsaturated Soil Behavior

Unsaturated Soil Behavior is a geotechnical soil behavior framework that integrates the influence of matric suction and degree of saturation on shear strength, volume change, and hydraulic conductivity to characterize the mechanical and hydrological response of soils existing above the groundwater table where pore pressures are negative.
