Integrated Air Trap and Volume Gauge for Axis Translation Systems
TL;DR: In this article, a combined air trap and volume gauge burette is used for flushing air bubbles from under ceramic disks in axis translation systems that are used to measure or apply matric suction to unsaturated soil specimens.

At-Rest Lateral Earth Pressure of Compacted Expansive Soils: Experimental Investigations and Prediction Approach
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of prediction models applied to the soil-water characteristic curve of ideal materials
TL;DR: In this article, four theoretical and semi-empirical models for the prediction of the soil-water characteristic curve are applied to predict artificial materials comprised of spherical particles, with varying coefficients of uniformity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of Pond Ash as a Cover Material in Single and Dual Capillary Barriers
TL;DR: In this article , a model was exclusively developed and calibrated using commercial software SEEP/W for this study, and the efficiency of pond ash as a coarse-grained layer (CGL), FGL, unsaturated drainage layer (UDL), and seepage control layer (SCL) was investigated using various combinations.
