Biopolymer based soil treatment for geotechnical engineering applications
(Springer, Singapore, 2023)Biopolymers (natural polymers) are exuded by micro- and macro-organisms (bacteria, plants, etc.) and have been shown to affect the geotechnical engineering behavior and properties of different soil types for low dosage ... -
Comment on “A new approach to stabilization of calcareous dune sand”
(2023)The Discussers read with interest the paper by Ghadr et al. (2022) (the Authors); the research topic being particularly important for various regions of the world regarding the main goals of dust suppression and wind-driven ... -
Improved geotechnical behavior of an expansive soil amended with tire-derived aggregates having different gradations
(2020)This experimental laboratory study examines the potential use of tire-derived aggregate (TDA) products as an additive to alleviate the inferior geotechnical properties of a subgrade deposit of clay soil with high ... -
Modeling the compaction characteristics of fine-grained soils blended with tire-derived aggregates
(2021)This study aims at modeling the compaction characteristics of fine-grained soils blended with sand-sized (0.075–4.75 mm) recycled tire-derived aggregates (TDAs). Model development and calibration were performed using a ... -
Predicting the Compactability of Artificially Cemented Fine‑Grained Soils Blended with Waste‑Tire‑Derived Aggregates
(2023)This study investigates the possibility of extending the specific gravity ratio (SGR) modeling framework, originally developed for predicting the compaction properties of unamended fine-grained soils (with no binder) ... -
Stabilization of a highly expansive soil using waste-tire-derived aggregates and lime treatment
(2022)This study investigates the combined efficacy of waste-tire-derived aggregate (TDA) materials and hydrated lime on the compactability, compressive strength and swelling potential of a highly expansive soil from South ... -
Sustainable environmental geotechnics practices for a green economy
(2022)The revitalisation of the global economy after the Covid-19 era presents environmental geotechnics with the opportunity to reinforce the need for a change in paradigm towards a green, circular economy and to promote ...
