Dispersivity has long been a major concern in civil and geo-environmental engineering, as
well as in agricultural engineering and soil sciences. Dispersive clay soils are common, but …

Lignosulfonate is one of the by-products in the paper and pulp industry that is widely
produced around the world and its improper disposal or storage can pose irreparable risks …

Artificial neural networks (ANN), machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and ensemble
learning (EL) are four outstanding approaches that enable algorithms to extract information …

Rammed earth (RE) structures are cost-effective and eco-friendly substitutes for low-rise
buildings, but their low compressive and tensile strengths are a concern. Cement …

The strength of marl soils decreases drastically in the variation of the water content. This has
caused such soil to be introduced as problematic soil in geotechnical projects. In the present …

This study deals with the contact erosion investigation and mechanical properties of both the
un-stabilized and polyvinyl acetate (PVAc)-stabilized dispersive embankment layer. To this …

This study aims to evaluate the effects of the utilization of iron ore overburden (IOO)
materials compared to virgin aggregates (VA) on the characteristics of hot mix asphalt (HMA) …

Internal erosion refers to the mechanism of separation and movement of soil grains owing to
water flow from a porous environment that may cause significant damage to the structures …

This paper comprehensively focuses on the wetting–drying (W–D) behavior of carbonated
marl soil, treated by a geopolymer utilizing alkali-activated milled recycled glass (MRG) and …

Marl soil, known for its high calcite content, presents significant challenges in construction
projects due to its low strength and poor durability, especially under varying moisture …
