The elasto-plastic constitutive model for unsaturated soils postulates the existence of a loading collapse yield locus (LC) and a suction increase yield locus (SI) in the p : s stress plane. The characteristics of the LC yield locus have been reasonably well established in recent years but there is

## Abstract Changes in groundwater elevation may cause a change in the net normal stress and matric potential within the soil mass, which results in volume changes of unsaturated soil. This research investigated the relationship between the drawdown of groundwater and the characteristics of volumet
A seven parameter model for the compaction of a soil by anisotropic consolidation has been proposed by Grisso, Johnson and Bailey, and they established the values of the parameters by extensive testing of four soil types. They have developed this model to meet boundary conditions at zero and very hi
