Therefore, data referred to 24 hours include one or more cycles of secondary compression, so that the compression portion tends to be displaced downward, giving a yield stress generally lower than that obtained from the end of primary curve Figure 4. If we consider the water rise in a narrow capillary tube Figure 4. As can be inferred from their geographical distribution, residual soils are predominant in warm, humid regions, where they can develop significant thicknesses, up to about 30 m. Depending on the net attractive or repulsive forces, clay particles during deposition tend to be attracted to each other, giving rise to a flocculate structure, or tend to move away, giving rise to a dispersed structure. The components of the fourth-order tensor Cijkl are 81 scalar quantities.
