Soil–Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) represents the functional relationship between water content and soil suction. The SWCC follows different paths on drying and wetting resulting in hysteresis. Drying and wetting soil-water characteristic curves (SWCCs) are obtained for three uniform sandy so...
