“…Once the tensile stress is developed within the soil particles and exceeds the strength of the soil, desiccation cracks occur with the increment of suction. Also, soil microstructure usually shows heterogeneity in soil particle arrangements, even for slurry specimens signifying that the tensile bonding strength between the soil particles is not uniform [15,19]. Under this effect of the tensile stress, the weak part of the lower bonded strength fails first; that is why more pronounced surface cracks at the top surface of the soil specimens are evolved.…”

“…Pour beaucoup, souvent qualifiées d'essai de gonflement, la sollicitation hydrique consiste en l'imbibition complète du sol dans différentes conditions de chargement. Ces méthodes ont fait l'objet d'études comparatives de leurs performances (Brackley, 1973 ;Sridharan et al, 1986 ;Schreiner et Burland, 1991 ;Basma et al, 1995 ;Serratrice et Soyez, 1996 ;Feng et al, 1998 ;Attom et Barakat, 2000 ;Fityus et al, 2005 ;Thompson et al, 2006 ;Sun et al, 2007 ;Nagaraj et al, 2009 ;Soundara et Robinson, 2009 ;Kayabali et Demir, 2011 ;Singhal et al, 2011 ;Abbaszadeh et al, 2016). Une des conclusions souvent rapportée fait état de la dépendance des pressions de gonflement avec les procédures d'essai.…”
