...Luc E. J. Simonin; Guy T. Houlsby; Byron W. Byrne Advanced finite-element analyses are increasingly being used in geotechnical design, and central to these analyses are reliable and accurate constitutive models to represent soil behaviour. These models need to address response across a wide range...

... records. First, an equation that relates the normalised k of soil (K_e) to the degree of saturation S_r is fitted to experimental k data, and the k at full saturation is assessed; then Θ_q is calculated from a geometric mean model...
