      Esta investigación se centra en el estudio del comportamiento mecánico de un suelo compactado, con especial énfasis en la caracterización del parámetro de la presión de preconsolidación en estado saturado. Para lograr este ...
    • On the hydromechanical behaviour of argillaceous hard soils-weak rocks 

      Gens Solé, Antonio (IOS Press, 2011)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      The paper examines some aspects of the hydromechanical behaviour of argillaceous hard soils and weak rocks. After considering the wide variety of this class of materials, some common behaviour features are sought concerning ...
    • Soil desiccation cracks as a suction-contraction process 

      Cordero Arias, Josbel Andreina; Useche, G; Prat, P. C.; Ledesma Villalba, Alberto; Santamarina, J. C. (Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), 2017-12)
