Triggered liquefaction in earthquakes, that soil displays fluid-like characteristics caused by
an on-going increase of pore water pressure and reduction of the effective stress, can …

Earthquake-induced liquefaction causes soil to exhibit fluidlike behavior due to a sudden
increase in pore water pressure and a concurrent decrease in effective stress. The …

The strength properties of basalt fiber–reinforced biocemented (BFRB) sand specimens with
various calcite contents and fiber contents are investigated through a series of unconfined …

The tensile strength of soil is an important mechanical parameter that controls the
development of tension cracks. In this study, randomly distributed polypropylene fibers were …

Conventional triaxial compression tests were conducted to determine the effect of cement
and polypropylene fiber reinforcement on sand. The cement content was 3%(dry wt.) of the …

Improvement of the crack resistance of clayey soils by fiber reinforcement was investigated
using initially saturated and fiber-reinforced soil specimens subjected to desiccation. An …

In the current construction practice, reinforcing the soil is an effective and reliable ground
improvement technique for increasing the strength and stability of the soil in various …

The tensile behaviour of soil plays a significantly important role in various engineering
applications. Compacted soils used in geotechnical constructions such as dams and clayey …

This book helps you make sense of the data your school collects, including state student
achievement results as well as other qualitative and quantitative data. Easy-to-use …

In some cases, the production of solid waste is experiencing an uncontrolled and continuous
increase, especially wastes from plastic products. Therefore, this study proposes an …
