为了获得干湿循环作用下膨胀土基质吸力的变化规律,首先采用人工模拟降雨和蒸发的方法开展了膨胀土室内干湿循环试验,然后利用滤纸法进行了不同含水率下试样的基质吸力测定试验,获得了干湿循环条件下膨胀土的土水特征曲线,求出了相应的进气值与残余值,结合Fredlund土水特征曲线模型对经历不同干湿循环次数下的土壤土水特征曲线进行了拟合,最终建立了考虑干湿循环效应的膨胀土土水特征曲线模型。结果表明：1）随着干湿循环次数的增加,土壤的进气值呈下降趋势,从循环1次时的134.5 k Pa降至循环4次时的58.5 k Pa,降幅达56.5%。从循环1次至2次的进气值下降较大,往后降幅明显减小,趋于基本稳定,这表明对土壤进气值的影响以初次干湿循环为主。2）残余值亦呈下降趋势,从循环1次时的1 040.5降至循环4次时的528.5 k Pa,降幅达49.2%。每经历一次干湿循环,残余值降幅均较大,尚未趋于稳定,这表明干湿循环效应对土壤残余值的影响比对土壤进气值的影响要大。3）新建土水特征曲线模型中的拟合参数与干湿循环次数成较好线性关系,表明随着干湿循环次数的增加,土壤进气值逐渐减小,水分变化速率有所降低,而残余含水率逐渐增加。该成果可为深入研究土壤基质吸力及其工程应用提供参考。

英文摘要：

Soil water characteristic curve（SWCC） can show the soil water holding capacity, and is the relationship between the soil matric potential and saturation. The expansive soil has the characteristics of strong swell-shrink, developing fissures and over consolidation, especially under drying-wetting cycles. Its water holding capacity, which has an important impact on the soil properties, is totally different from the capacity of full soil. Therefore, how to exactly obtain the matric suction of expansive soil under drying-wetting cycles is very important to analyze the characteristics of mechanics and deformation of expansive soil. In order to analyze the change rule of matric suction of expansive soil under drying-wetting cycles, the artificial rainfall and evaporation was applied in drying-wetting tests of expansive soil. The specimens sized at 102 mm × 40 mm（diameter × height） were made by compaction apparatus and the initial dry density was 1.68 g/cm3. All the specimens were saturated after compaction and undergoing drying-wetting cycles in constant temperature（22 ℃） environment. The small electric fans were adopted to increase the rate of evaporation until the mass of specimens was kept constant under the condition of drying. Then the water vapours were sprayed to the surface of specimens by humidifiers until the process of infiltration stopped under the condition of wetting. That is one drying-wetting cycle so far. In this paper, 4 set of experiments under drying-wetting cycles were carried out and the cycle times were 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively. Then 11 specimens sampled by cutting rings（61.8 mm × 20 mm（diameter × height）） in different volumetric water content were obtained in each process of drying and wetting respectively. The matric suction of each specimen was measured with filter paper of Whatman No. 42 and then the SWCCs were obtained under drying-wetting cycles. The corresponding air-entry values and residual values in different drying-wetting cycle times were calculated from SW
