The papers report on the latest advances in geo-engineering aspects of unsaturated soils. It is the first collection to focus on research developments within Europe, where a resurgence of interest in unsaturated soil behaviour has lead to major advances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume is divided into five sections:\u003cbr\u003e- Advances in testing techniques,\u003cbr\u003e- Engineering behaviour,\u003cbr\u003e-Constitutive modelling,\u003cbr\u003e- Numerical modelling,\u003cbr\u003e-Case histories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe areas of application include slope stability, foundations, dams, contaminated land, landfill and nuclear waste repositories. The section on advances in testing techniques includes recent developments in high capacity tensiometers, spatial Time Domain Reflectometry and Environmental Scanning Electron M\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelected Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e; Preface; Organization; Keynotes; Advances in testing techniques; Engineering behaviour; Volumetric behaviour; Shear behaviour; Constitutive modelling; Numerical modelling; Case studies; Author index\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49402126860631,"sku":"9780415476928","price":427.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780415476928.jpg?v=1730479474","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/unsaturated-soils-advances-in-geoengineering-9780415476928","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
