Thermo-mechanical behaviour of a compacted swelling clay
Anh-Minh Tang, Yu-Jun Cui, Nathalie Barnel
Compacted unsaturated swelling clay is often considered as a possible buffer material for deep nuclear waste disposal. An isotropic cell permitting simultaneous control of suction,…
Monitoring field soil suction using a miniature tensiometer
Yu-Jun Cui, Anh-Minh Tang, Altin Theodore Mantho +1
An experimental device was developed to monitor the field soil suction using miniature tensiometer. This device consists of a double tube system that ensures a good contact between…
Controlling suction by vapour equilibrium technique at different temperatures, application to the determination of the water retention properties of MX80 clay
Anh-Minh Tang, Yu-Jun Cui
Problems related to unsaturated soils are frequently encountered in geotechnical or environmental engineering works. In most cases, for the purpose of simplicity, the problems are…
A new isotropic cell for studying the thermo-mechanical behavior of unsaturated expansive clays
Anh-Minh Tang, Yu-Jun Cui, Nathalie Barnel
This paper presents a new suction-temperature controlled isotropic cell that can be used to study the thermo-mechanical behavior of unsaturated expansive clays. The vapor equilibri…
Use of a differential pressure transducer for the monitoring of soil volume change in cyclic triaxial test on unsaturated soils
Yu-Jun Cui, Anh-Minh Tang, Duilio Marcial +3
A new experimental set-up using a differential pressure transducer was developed, that enables the monitoring of volume changes in cyclic triaxial tests on unsaturated soils. Calib…
