Calcareous gravelly sand (CGS) is a highly compressible and easily breakable granular
geomaterial widely used to fill the island reef foundation. In this study, a series of confined …

Coral sand is the main filling material for the island–reef foundation. Under tidal actions, the
saturation (Sr) of coral sand layers varies with the specific depths in the reclaimed …

To explore the feasibility of geogrid reinforcement as a promising countermeasure to
improve the liquefaction and post-liquefaction resistance of calcareous sand, extensive …

To provide new insights into the liquefaction and post-liquefaction behaviors of calcareous
sand with and without geosynthetics reinforcement, a series of multi-stage cyclic triaxial tests …

Geosynthetics reinforced soil techniques are adopted to reinforce the calcareous sand
foundations to improve the stability of the revetment structures in coral reefs. In this research …

Reinforced calcareous sand is increasingly recognized as a promising roadbed filler. This
study evaluated the effects of different reinforcement methods, rubber content, dynamic …

The mechanical response of the marine reef sand–geogrid (RG) interface can be influenced
by a high-temperature climate, grain size, and variable stress environments. These factors …

A study on the interface monotonic shear behavior of calcareous sands reinforced with
geogrid was reported. Large-scale monotonic direct shear tests were carried out on …

The present study provides insight into the cyclic behavior of unreinforced and geogrid-
reinforced coral sand. To achieve these goals, stress-controlled undrained cyclic triaxial …

This study conducts a series of large-scale pullout tests to explore the pullout behavior of the
biaxial geogrid-calcareous sand interface. It investigates the effects of normal stress, relative …
