Soil modification is a technique for improving poor soil properties to make them suitable for
engineering projects. Regarding the previous studies, various types of stabilisations were …

Although natural fibers can improve the strength behavior of frozen-thawed soil, the
reinforcing mechanism is still not fully understood. To investigate the effects of freeze-thaw …

The microstructural and resistance properties of fine-grained soils can remarkably alter
under freeze-thaw cycles in seasonally frozen regions. Although treated soils have better …

The freeze-thaw (FT) cycle is a common weathering process that often occurs in cold
climates, and it can deteriorate the mechanical performance of the subgrade soil, leading to …

Nanoparticles have been recently used in various applications due to their availability and
justified costs. Thus, the effects of such materials on physical, chemical and mechanical …

Freeze-thaw induced variations of the shear strength of loess is critical for evaluating the
stability of natural and artificial slopes in loess terrains. The frequently encountered loess in …

In order to study the strength properties of the weak soil reinforced by fibers, a series of
unconsolidated undrained triaxial compression tests of fine-grained soil subjected to freeze …

This study examines the effect of nanosilica (NS) additive to improve the mechanical
properties of clay, clayey sand, and sand. The engineering properties of the soils were …

Soil stabilization, through either physical or chemical techniques of coating-cementation
development, is a commonly adopted practice in geotechnical and transportation …

Several soil stabilization studies have been conducted in the literature with silica fume and
fibers separately on coarse and fine grained soils. However, few studies have been …
