The swelling-shrinkage behavior of expansive soils under climate changes will cause the crack development, which can be destructive of expansive soil slopes. This study investigated the effect of drying/wetting cycles on the stability of an expansive soi...

Obtaining and managing groundwater data is difficult as it is common for time series datasets representing groundwater levels at wells to have large gaps of missing data. To address this issue, many methods have been developed to infill or impute the mis...

Significant amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus in sediments will be released into the overlying water during the flood season in the water level fluctuation zone (WLFZ) of reservoirs that undergo periodic drying and flooding. This will result in water qu...

For modeling physical and mechanical phenomena that occur in unsaturated soils, it is very important to identify the correct relationship between suction and water content. This relationship defines the soil water retention curve (SWRC). Its shape depend...
