Effect of the dry–wet cycle on the mechanical properties of Ili loess with different mica contents

Abstract The mechanical properties of the loess in the Ili region of China deteriorate significantly when it is subjected to the dry–wet cycles. Attributed to the critical role played by the mica content for the mechanical deterioration of Ili loess, a series of laboratory tests, including the X-ray...
