I was wondering if anybody can help me with interpreting the permanent deformation behaviour of Unbound Granular Materials?

I compacted unbound aggregates at optimum moisture content and then let it dry in the oven for one day. The repeated load triaxial test was carried out on this sample in which I faced a weird...

Does anybody has any idea about the equation of the compaction curve of granular materials and how the Optimum Moisture Content can be calculated?

I mean after doing the compaction practice in various water contents and determining the dry density corresponding to each water content, what would be the equation of the resultant compaction...
