Abstract (english)
An increasing number of studies published in the last decade show that physical model experiments are becoming an increasingly popular and more available tool in the study of various problems, such as rainfall infiltration, surface runoff, hydromechanical response of soils and slopes, slope stability, effectiveness of remediation measures, hydraulic barriers, the impact of vegetation on slope stability, etc. The soil water characteristic curve (SWCC), which relates soil suction to soil moisture content, is one of the most important features in unsaturated soil mechanics. Together with the hydraulic conductivity function, it plays a crucial role in the transient rainfall infiltration process and thus has major influence on stability of slopes exposed to rainfall. However, numerous studies have shown that the direct measurement of unsaturated hydraulic parameters using conventional laboratory methods can be difficult, expensive, time-consuming, and involve many uncertainties. This is especially present for fine-grained soils, where unsaturated soil property functions cover a wide range of soil suction that these soils may typically exhibit, and where measurements necessary to determine SWCC typically require the combination of different measurement techniques and equipment. On the other hand, measurements in uniformly graded, coarse soils can be challenging due to the typically highly nonlinear and steep shape of the SWCC, where only a few kPa of soil suction can distinguish between saturated and residual soil moisture conditions. This study presents some preliminary results on determining the SWCC of a uniformly graded sand using a specifically designed physical modelling tests. A 30 cm high slope inclined at 35 degrees and instrumented with soil moisture and pore water pressure sensors was subjected to different simulated rainfall intensities to investigate whether the data on steady-state seepage conditions could be used for hydraulic characterisation of a slope material. The preliminary results indicate that the method is not only useful for this application, but that the approach is useful for the investigation of hydraulic hysteresis and its effects on soil moisture and pore water pressure conditions as well, which also affect slope stability.
