Laboratory modelling: Settlement due to groundwater fluctuation in partially saturated soil
Inundation settlement or wetting collapse is triggered by the rise of groundwater table. The complexity of this soil volume change behaviour is that it is taking place under effective stress reduction. In partially saturated soils, the void spaces are filled with both air and water, therefore suctio...
