In construction projects, estimation of the settlement of fine-grained soils is of critical importance, and yet is a challenging task. The coefficient of consolidation for the compression index (Cc) is a key parameter in modeling the settlement of fine-g...

The macroscopic mechanical properties of natural sedimentary soft soils, which are usually linked to their microstructure, are different from those of remolded soils. The interaction between soil structure and mechanical behavior is a manifestation of st...

Although the use of Prefabricated Vertical Drain (PVD) in soil improvement is not new, this paper is interesting since it gives the full spectrum from preliminary design stage; trial embankment and pilot test to final soil improvement. The final installa...

Recently, studies that introduce alternative binders or wastes for created geo-materials that can be mixed with soil to give it greater strength, are of paramount importance. Roof tile residue, for example, has been widely used to create geopolymers in m...

To improve the accuracy of discrete element simulation in the process of separating potato?soil mixtures, the contact parameters of sandy soil with 3, 6, 9, and 12% water content were calibrated in DEM simulation using EDEM software simulation. The error...

In this paper, we develop an elasto-viscoplastic (EVP) model for clay using the non-associated flow rule. This is accomplished by using a modified form of the Perzyna?s overstressed EVP theory, the critical state soil mechanics, and the multi-surface the...

Adding sodium chloride, as admixture, and Portland Cement, as stabilizer, to a very soft clay increase its plasticity index (PI), Californian Bearing Ratio (CBR), and Unconfined Compression Strength (UCS). This paper presents the results of testings done...

Compared with other natural fibers, coir fiber has good strength characteristics and long-term anti-biodegradation ability. At present, most studies on randomly distributed coir fiber-reinforced soil have focused on cohesionless soil or granular soil. In...

Calcareous sand is a special marine soil rich in calcium carbonate minerals, characterized by brittle particles. It is, therefore, widely used as a filling material in the construction of islands and reefs. In this study, a series of cyclic tri-axial tes...
