Relative performance of two unsaturated soil models using different constitutive variables (2014)
Journal Article
Lloret-Cabot, M., Wheeler, S. J., Pineda, J. A., Sheng, D., & Gens, A. (2014). Relative performance of two unsaturated soil models using different constitutive variables. Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 51(12), 1423-1437. https://doi.org/10.1139/cgj-2013-0462

Mechanical and water retention behaviour of unsaturated soils is investigated in the context of two well established coupled constitutive models, each of which is formulated in terms of a different set of stress state variables or constitutive variab...

Unification of plastic compression in a coupled mechanical and water retention model for unsaturated soils (2014)
Journal Article
Lloret-Cabot, M., Wheeler, S. J., & Sánchez, M. (2014). Unification of plastic compression in a coupled mechanical and water retention model for unsaturated soils. Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 51(12), 1488-1493. https://doi.org/10.1139/cgj-2013-0360

In 2003, Wheeler, Sharma, and Buisson presented an elastoplastic constitutive model for unsaturated soils that represents both the mechanical behaviour and water retention behaviour, including the coupling between them. A crucial feature of the model... Read More about Unification of plastic compression in a coupled mechanical and water retention model for unsaturated soils.

On the estimation of scale of fluctuation in geostatistics (2014)
Journal Article
Lloret-Cabot, M., Fenton, G. A., & Hicks, M. A. (2014). On the estimation of scale of fluctuation in geostatistics. Georisk: Assessment and Management of Risk for Engineered Systems and Geohazards, 8(2), 129-140. https://doi.org/10.1080/17499518.2013.871189

Describing how soil properties vary spatially is of particular importance in stochastic analyses of geotechnical problems, because spatial variability has a significant influence on local material and global geotechnical response. In particular, the... Read More about On the estimation of scale of fluctuation in geostatistics.
