Wetting-induced collapse behaviour of a natural and vegetated coarse pyroclastic soil

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Capobianco Vittoria and collaborators from the Department of Civil Engineering, University of Salerno (UniSa), Italy have published the article: Wetting-induced collapse behaviour of a natural and vegetated coarse pyroclastic soil, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The paper investigates the role played by vegetation on wetting-induced collapse behaviour (namely collapsibility) of reconstituted unsaturated soil specimens through two series of wetting tests in a standard oedometer.
  • future: Studies are needed to understand the behaviour of rooted-soil during collapse at higher consolidation pressures.
