Ryosuke Kitamura, Kazunari Sako

Unsaturated Soil Mechanics with Probability and Statistics (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The book is focused on the mechanical behaviour of dry, partially saturated and full saturated sandy soil. It explores the inter-particle forces at the point of contact of soil particles and the resultant inter-particle stresses, instead of the total stress and effective stress which are studied in mainstream soil mechanics.
