Effects of Pore-Water Chemistry on the Behaviour of Unsatuarted Clays
Abstract Due to their various applications in geo-environmental engineering, such as in landfill and nuclear waste disposals, the coupled chemo-hydro-mechanical analysis of expansive soils has gained more and more attention recently. These expansive soils are usually unsaturated under field conditions; therefore the capillary effects need to be taken into account appropriately. For this purpose, based on a rigorous thermodynamic framework [2], the authors have extended the chemo-mechanical model of Loret el al. [5] for saturated homoionic expansive soils to the unsaturated case [3]. This chemo-mechanical unsaturated model is subsequently applied to simulate the behaviour of triaxial samples subject to combined chemo-mechanical loadings under laboratory conditions to investigate its precision and pertinence in view of future refinements.
