Shear strength characteristics and rainfall-induced matric suction changes in a residual soil slope

Shear strength characteristics and rainfall-induced matric suction changes in a residual soil slope

Shallow landslides in natural residual soil slopes are common all over the world. The slip surfaces associated with these landslides are situated above groundwater table. Therefore, it is important to quantify the contribution of negative pore-water pressure to the shear strength of soils and to inv...
