Characterization of Compacted Silty Sand Using a Double-Walled Triaxial Cell With Fully Automated Relative-Humidity Control
TL;DR: In this paper, a servo-controlled triaxial cell is used to test unsaturated soils under higher total suction states via the vapor-pressure technique, allowing for direct measurement and control of the relative humidity inside the pores of the test soil.
