...J. Jarjour; M. A. Meguid; S. Bhat Wicking geotextiles have been developed to overcome the limitations of conventional geotextiles in unsaturated soil conditions. Over the past decade, research has demonstrated the effectiveness of woven wicking geotextiles in draining capillary water and improving...

...Z. Chen; P. Ni; X. Zhu; D. Chen; G. Mei This paper proposes an approximate analytical solution for equal-strain consolidation of unsaturated soils with vertical drains considering smear and well-resistance effects. According to the modified laws of both Fick and Darcy, the governing equations...

...K. Hatami; D. Esmaili ABSTRACT: One main concern related to the performance of unsaturated soils during the construction and service life of earthen structures is loss of matric suction due to the seasonal variations of gravimetric water content (GWC), ground water infiltration and possible...
