Overview

Review highlights the role of unsaturated soil mechanics in enhancing geotechnical resilience against climate change. It outlines key challenges and opportunities for adaptation in infrastructure planning.

Key Points

  • The integration of unsaturated soil mechanics offers a better prediction of geostructure performance under climate variability.
  • Analytical insights reveal that suction enhances soil strength, impacting slope stability and bearing capacity.
  • Emerging monitoring techniques and computational models present significant opportunities for climate-resilient geotechnical engineering.
  • Advocacy for embedding unsaturated soil mechanics into design codes is crucial for proactive infrastructure resilience.
