This study aims to create soil zonation maps (SZM) using a spatial interpolation approach
relying on vast geotechnical subsoil data gathered through field and laboratory analysis …

The maximum dry density (γ d, max) and optimum moisture content (ω opt) determined from
the results of the Proctorr test are very important for geotechnical engineering and earth …

Ground vibration is one of the common environmental effects of blasting operation in mining
industry, and it may cause damage to the nearby structures and the surrounding residents …

The use of optimization methods in geotechnics dates back to the 1950s. They were used in
slope stability analysis (Bishop) and evolved to a wide range of applications in ground …

This study explores the potential of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) for
prediction of the ultimate axial load bearing capacity of piles (P u) using cone penetration …

Unsaturated lateritic soils are complex soils to work with due to moisture effects. So, the
determination of its properties requires lots of time, labor and equipment. For this reason, the …

Data visualization and use of statistics resulting into reliable databases could minimize
uncertainty and optimize decision making in terms of both time and resources. Accordingly …

Geotechnical analyses and designs in practice are often performed using a two-dimensional
(2D) cross-section, information of which is obtained from site investigation. The quality of site …

Site investigation is crucial in characterizing the geomaterial profile for the design of bridge
pile foundations. A site investigation plan should be conducted to maximize geomaterial …

Geotechnical investigation is essentially a process of information acquisition, analysis, and
application. Informatization is an attractive way to improve the efficiency of geotechnical …
