Experimental results indicate the strong correlation between the measured apparent electrical resistivity and cracking behavior of soil. Image processing quantitatively describes the geometrical characteristics of shrinkage surface crack patterns. cm electrode spacing are carried out to detect the initiation, propagation and coalescence of desiccation cracks. Apparent electrical resistivity measurements at 1.0. In this study, an integrated experimental setup is configured to simultaneously capture the evolution of temperature, relative humidity, water content, crack morphology, and apparent electrical resistivity in clay during continuous drying. The electrical resistivity method provides a non-destructive, sensitive and continuous evaluation of the spatiotemporal variations of many soil physical properties. ![]() Traditional methods applied for the characterization of soil cracking behaviors are mainly based on visual inspections or destructive approaches. Desiccation cracking process negatively impacts both mechanical and hydraulic properties of clayey soils.
