Non-Monotonic Mechanical Response and Multiscale Damage Evolution of Argillaceous Siltstone Under Wet–Dry Cycles

Argillaceous siltstone forms water-sensitive weak layers in red-bed slopes, but its multiscale deterioration under wet–dry cycling remains incompletely understood. Specimens subjected to 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 cycles were examined through uniaxial compression, energy analysis, digital image correlation (DIC), and microst...
