Alkaline activation of fly ash (FA) was used to improve the mechanical performance of a silty
sand, considering this new material as a replacement for soil-cement applications, namely …

Bender element (BE) testing is a powerful and increasingly common laboratory technique for
determining the shear S-wave velocity of geomaterials. There are several advantages of BE …

This paper focuses on literature analyses of the impact of granite powder waste on the
properties of cementitious mixes and composites. The influence of weather conditions on the …

Ground improvement by cementation is a technique widely used because of the easiness of
application and relatively low cost. To date, however, there is no global understanding of the …

The compression behavior of an artificially cemented soil was analyzed by the adjusted
porosity/cement index using a correlation established in the recent literature. It was found …

This work focuses on developing multidisciplinary researches concerning weathering
profiles related to landscape evolution of the Capo Vaticano promontory on the Calabria …

Residual soils are found in many parts of the world. Like other soils, they are used
extensively in construction, either to build upon, or as construction material. They are formed …

为了研究花岗岩残积土在干湿循环过程中的力学损伤演化规律, 采用单轴压缩–
电阻率联合测试系统对原状土开展试验, 获取土体的电阻率–应力–应变曲线 …

The weathering processes produce important chemical and physical transformations in rock
masses producing a decay of their strength and then stability. In this study different …

The site characterization of unsaturated soils is well stablished based on laboratory tests,
which are expensive and time-consuming. In-situ testing methods, such as the flat …
