Theory of liquid and plastic limits for fine soils, methods of determination and outlook
(2024)
Albert Atterberg introduced various consistency limits (state transitions) for fine-grained soil in the 1910s. Of these, the
liquid limit (LL) and plastic limit (PL) are ubiquitous in geotechnical engineering practice, ...
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 ...
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 ...
Geotechnical properties of compacted biosolids for monofill design, As-Samra, Jordan
(2020)
This paper presents the results of a comprehensive geotechnical laboratory testing for the assessment and design of a proposed biosolid monofill facility at the As-Samra Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Jordan. Previous ...
An objective framework for determination of the air-entry value from the soil?water characteristic curve
(2021)
The air-entry value (AEV) suction, marking the transition between saturated and unsaturated soil mechanics, is arguably the most important parameter interpreted from the soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC); its accurate ...
Discussion of ?Physio-chemical properties, consolidation, and stabilization of tropical peat soil using traditional soil additives ? a state of the art literature review? by Afnan Ahmad, Muslich Hartadi Sutanto, Mohammed Ali Mohammed Al-Bared, Indra Sati Hamonangan Harahap, Seyed Vahid Alavi Nezhad Khalil Abad, Mudassir Ali Khan
(2022)
This discussion article provides commenting on the sections of the review paper by Ahmad et al. (the authors) concerning consistency limits determinations for peats and peaty soils, drawing on the writer’s experiences ...
Assessing the shear strength of municipal sludges and residues for landfill disposal
(CISA Publisher: Italy, 2016)
Effects of cement kiln dust on physicochemical and geomechanical properties of loess soil, Semnan Province, Iran
(2022)
For problematic soils, conventional (cement and lime) additives can provide the necessary improvements in geomechanical properties for various infrastructure constructions. However, these additives have a high environmental ...
