About Course

Unsaturated Soil Mechanics.

The knowledge of soil behavior is very important in the Geotechnical engineering practice. The soil behavior in the saturated state is widely taught in undergraduate and graduate programs, all over.

The existence of air-phase in natural soils prompts the soil to behave differently from the saturated soils.

The present course would provide the fundamental principles, mechanisms, and behavior of partly saturated soils.
