Cyclic swell–shrink behaviour of an expansive soil treated with a sulfonated oil
(2022)The effects of a sulfonated oil (SO) stabiliser on the swell–shrink properties of an expansive soil were investigated through cyclic wetting–drying tests. The cyclic wetting–drying action led to the reconstruction of the ... -
Discussion: A fuzzy classification process for swelling soils [Transp. Infrastruct. Geotechnol. 10(3), 474-487]
(2024)This communication article presents a discussion of various fundamental points pertaining to the Toksöz Hozatlıoğlu and Yılmaz (2023) (the Authors) investigation [published in Transp. Infrastruct. Geotechnol. 10(3), 474–487], ... -
Discussion: A novel formula for the prediction of swelling pressure of compacted expansive soils
(2020)Recently, Elsaidy et al. (2019) have proposed a novel empirical model–that is, equation (6) in the original manuscript–for the prediction of the one-dimensional swelling pressure of compacted expansive soils. A total of ... -
Engineering reactive clay systems by ground rubber replacement and polyacrylamide treatment
(2019)This study investigates the combined performance of ground rubber (GR), the additive, and polyacrylamide (PAM), the binder, as a sustainable solution towards ameliorating the inferior geotechnical attributes of an expansive ... -
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 ... -
Intermittent swelling and shrinkage of a highly expansive soil treated with polyacrylamide
(2022)This laboratory study examines the potential use of an anionic polyacrylamide (PAM)-based material as an environmentally sustainable additive for the stabilization of an expansive soil from South Australia. The experimental ...
