[tag] coefficient

The coefficient of the model, which gives the swelling stress at full saturation. The coefficient can be obtained by

$${\alpha}_{\text{sw}} = \frac{{{\sigma}}^{\text{sw}}_{\text{max}}}{(S_{\text{max}}-S_0)}$$

with ${{\sigma}}^{\text{sw}}_{\text{max}}$ the swelling stress at full saturation, and $S_{\text{max}}$ the maximum saturation.
