- This paper proposes a constitutive model that predicts the hydromechanical behaviour of unsaturated soils. The main advantage of this model over past studies is that the equations are defined in a closed form and hence they can be easily implemented in numerical codes to study geotechnical applications. The model requires a limited number of parameters, thus reducing both computational and experimental demands needed for calibration in comparison with other models. Finally, this paper has laid the basis for an additional publication in Computers and Geotechnics and started a new research collaboration with Durham University (UK) and University of Genoa (Italy).
