Fundamental Behavior of Unsaturated Widely-Graded Soil

This book focuses on the engineering properties of unsaturated widely  graded soils and their influence on slope stability. This book  characterizes the natural widely graded colluvial soils from macroscale,  mesoscale, and microscale viewpoints, introduces the techniques for  measuring hydro-mechanical properties for unsaturated widely graded  colluvial soils, and clarifies the hydro-mechanical behavior and the  failure mechanism of widely graded colluvial soils subjected to  environmental loads. This book improves the understanding of  rainfall-induced landslides on natural slopes. Researchers and engineers  in the field of civil engineering can benefit from the book.
