Freezing Characteristics of Mine Waste Tailings and their Relation to Unsaturated Soil Properties
DownloadSpring 2018
The study investigated the feasibility of using the soil freezing characteristic curve (SFCC) to estimate the soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) in mine waste tailings as an alternative to traditional SWCC testing. Traditional SWCC tests are challenging and time-consuming to conduct, taking...
