Role of Diatom Microstructure in Determining the Atterberg Limits of Fine-Grained Diatomaceous Soil
Applied Sciences (Switzerland), 2023 The presence of diatoms in diatomaceous soil gives it geotechnical properties that are unusual compared with common clays. The most typical physical property of diatomaceous soil is its abnormally high Atterberg limits compared to fine-grained soil ...

Automatic determination of the Atterberg limits with machine learning•
Dyna, 2022 In this study, we determine the liquid limit (𝑊𝑙), plasticity index (PI), and plastic limit (𝑊𝑝) of several natural fine-grained soil samples with the help of machine-learning and statistical methods. This enables us to locate each soil type analysed in
