  • Soil Degradation-Consolidation Theory and Its Applications

    by Yunmin Chen ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book focuses on skeleton-degradable soils, including three typical degradation processes of soil skeletons: soil particle breakage, chemical degradation, and biochemical degradation. Corresponding degradation models and constitutive models are proposed, and a degradation–consolidation theory is established. The theory overcomes the limitations of classical soil mechanics, such as the constant ... Read more
