Research Abstract |
In this study, we aimed at understandings of temperature dependencies on mass transport and mechanical properties of soils, and conducted oedometer tests and solute transport experiments under temperature control using Kaolin and alluvial clays. The oedometer tests using Kaolin clays showed temperature increase enhanced consolidation yield stress, consolidation index, and shear modulus possibly due to an increased cementation between soil particles. Temperature dependency on solute transport characteristic confirmed higher hydraulic conductivity and solute diffusion coefficient for samples at higher temperature. This trend could be expressed by modifying existing predictive models for those parameters. In addition, solute transport experiments using alluvial clays showed that temperature dependency on solute dispersion coefficient was not so significant as compared to retardation factor.
