Biological processes may provide great and previously unexplored opportunities for cost-
effective, in situ improvement of the engineering properties of soil. A laboratory study was …

Naturally available sands are always found with finer particles of varying sizes and
proportions which are generally not accounted for in the geotechnical design of a cemented …

Soil stabilization through cementation is a commonly-adopted ground improvement
technique in which Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) is widely used as the binding material …

Marine sediments can be stabilized by ultra high-strength binders: cement, Cement Kiln
Dust (CKD) and slag. The properties of the stabilized soil indicate potential to their reuse …

This study investigated the effects of freeze-thaw (f/t) cycles on the static and dynamic
behaviors of plain cement-soil (PCS) sample and basalt fiber reinforced cement-soil …

The construction of large offshore wind turbines in seismic active regions has great demand
on the design of foundations. The occurrence of soil liquefaction under seismic motion will …

This study aims to investigate the effect of sand in the cemented clay matrix by
understanding the limitations of conventional mixture design concepts. To characterize the …

Piezo-ceramic elements are customized as transducers for the measurement of mechanical
properties of materials in the engineering field. This was made possible with the industrial …

Sudden and rapid mass movements associated with landslides and snow avalanches
present a hazard to life and infrastructure, yet their predictions and triggering mechanisms …

This study investigates the influence of wood pellet fly ash (WA) and wood pellet fly ash-
blended binders (WABB) on the dynamic growth of albite-based weathered granite soils …
