Abstract: Soil particle-level investigation of basic behavior for unsaturated soil is increasingly
concerned by soil mechanics researchers. It seems easier to recognize microscopic hydraulic
behavior of wet particulate material such as unsaturated soil by analyzing the interaction
between wet particles and liquid bridge. A theoretical model for the interaction between
uneven-sized wet particles and liquid bridge is proposed, consisting of an assumed toroid-shaped
liquid bridge in contact with corresponding smooth particles, at a separation determined by their
actual surface roughness. The volume and capillary force of the liquid bridge between them are
related to matric suction, ratio of particle radius, solid-liquid contact angles, and roughness of the
