...Aijun Chen, PhD, SN ENGR (Senior Engineer); Chaohua Li, MSc; Chuanyang Ding, MSc Red clay is prone to cracking in desiccating environments, with criss-cross cracks compromising soil structures and inducing slope instability. Under natural hygrothermal conditions, a desiccation test of red clay...
