In this study, the influence of cyclic wetting and drying on swelling behavior of polymer-
stabilized expansive clays has been investigated. Such a study is required to assess the …

Various factors can affect the durability of roads, such as the strength of sub-grade, the
quality of the sub-base and base course, the environments and properties of the soil used …

In the current study, the agricultural waste materials Date Seed Ash (DSA) is investigated.
Various concentrations of DSA (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) were applied, and the impact of …

This paper introduces new soil stabilisers for reducing the swelling potential of expansive
soils. In this study three different polymers (furan, poly (methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) and …

The focus of this work is to elucidate the effect of drainage conditions on the swelling
behavior of unsaturated expansive clay soils using a new drainage controlled uniaxial …

Dredging activities of harbours and rivers are becoming very important in many countries all
over the world and, as a consequence, the disposal of dredged sediments is a critical …

Kaolin and ball clay samples from four states in Nigeria were examined with the aim of
determining their chemical composition as well as testing for their suitability as refractory …

Gypsiferous soils classified as problematic soils due to the dissolution of gypsum. Presence
of gypsum in the soils texture subjected to steady flow can cause serious damages for the …

The anisotropy of granular media and its evolution during shearing are important aspects
required in developing physics-based constitutive models in Earth sciences. The …

Among the important health parameters in soil, soil organic carbon (SOC), microbial
biomass carbon (MBC), microbial respiration (CO2), water-soluble carbon (WSC) are the …
