Rainfall evaluation of root water uptake induced deformation

A volume change was modeled as a result of matric suction change caused by vegetative induced moisture migration. Tree root water-uptake increases soil strength by increasing the soil matric suction and as well causes volume change which might be detrimental to geotechnical structure. Rainfall effec...
