Dear All,
How's the development of effective stress in unsaturated soils? Is the effective normal stress increasing with suction? Is this increase in the stress at particle contacts reduce the possibility of slippage? If the effective stresses increase, does it imply that the consolidation increases with suction? Please correct me if I'm wrong in any of the above statements. Thank you.
