COMPRESSIBILITY OF UNSATURATED SWELLING CLAYS ON THE BASIS OF RHEOLOGICAL EXPERIMENTS

COMPRESSIBILITE DES ARGILES GONFLANTES NON SATUREES A PARTIR DES ESSAIS RHEOLOGIQUES

The expression for the modulus of compressibility has been established on the basis of rheological experiments in an oedometer that measured the swelling pressure and the vapor pressure of the adsorbed liquid phase of a swelling clay hydrated by water injections under different applied loads.
