AB  - The compaction of soils can lead to soil profiles that have properties
that are less desirable from the point of view of agricultural use of soils. The paper
presents elementary models of soil compaction based on continuum theories of
poro-elasto-plasticity. Attention is restricted to the consideration of the quasi-static
loading of a saturated one-dimensional column of soil that can experience fluid
flow in its pore space and reversible and irreversible deformations of the porous
skeleton.
