英文摘要 | In the northwest of China, many loess landslides have occurred without clear triggering factors (i.e., rainfall, earthquake, human activities, etc.). To better understand and analyze the hydro-mechanical properties of these slopes and then provide evidence for their stability analysis subjected to matric suction, it is essential to clarify the soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC). In this study, we conducted a set of experimental trials to examine the influences of initial dry density, water content upon the SWCCs of a loess soil taken from a loess landslide area, by using a conventional volumetric pressure plate extractor. Two common SWCC models have been investigated to evaluate which one is better for loess soil. The suction stress characteristic curves (SSCCs) were also estimated and analyzed. We found that behaviors of SWCCs would be different when the matric suction was greater than a certain value. The two SWCC equations have approximately the same performance in describing the SWCC. The rates of desorption decrease and residual water content increases with increasing the initial dry density, while the initial dry density has little, if any, influence on the air-entry value (AEV). The specimen compacted under higher initial water content would exhibit a higher AEV value and residual water content but lower rate of desorption as compared with the lower initial water content. The magnitude of suction stress had an approximately linear relationship with matric suction before the AEV value, the SSCC shapes will be markedly varied with the initial dry density and water content. © 2016 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg |
