Overview of the Development of Consolidation Theory of Unsaturated Soils

Article Preview

Abstract:

The consolidation theory and test results of unsaturated soils were summarized in detail in this article, which include the recent development. And some existent difficulties and problems for consolidation theory of unsaturated soil were also summarized. The consolidation theory of unsaturated soils have well applicable future, but the theory is not mature and need the investigators’ further research.
