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

Estimating Atterberg limits of soils from hygroscopic water content [PDF]
, 2021 A number of environmental, agronomic and engineering applications require knowledge of the Atterberg limits (liquid limit, LL; plastic limit, PL) and the plasticity index, PI of soils.

Stabilization of Subgrade Soil for Highway by Recycled Polyester Fiber [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2014 Subgrade soil stabilization is one of the primary and major processes in the construction of any highway; also environmental authorities are concerned about the growing amount of polyethylene (PET) bottles produced by household sectors.

Effect of Sulfate on the Aggregation of Clay Particles in Loess
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The type and structure of clay minerals are among the main factors affecting the physical and mechanical properties of loess, and the salt content plays a dominant role in many factors affecting aggregation.

Application of toughness limit in assessment of soil compaction identifiers
Građevinar, 2023 In geotechnical engineering, the precise evaluation of compaction parameters is essential for quality control assessment. One option is the use of the toughness limit (TL), concisely defined as the water content, at which the behaviour of fine-grained ...

Consistency Characteristics of Dispersive Clays [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2021 Dispersive soils are characterized by three features: (1) unstable structure, (2) they are readily flocculate in water, and (3) very erodible. The use of dispersed clay soils in hydraulic structures, dams and road dams can cause serious engineering ...

Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Technologies, 2022 Correlations between compression index and atterberg limits found in the literature are very important for preliminary estimation. These equations are usually interpreted based on the R-square parameter and classified according to the conditions of the ...

Discussion of ‘‘Re-Examination of Undrained Strength at Atterberg Limits Water Contents’’ by H.B. Nagaraj, A. Sridharan & H.M. Mallikarjuna [PDF]
, 2012 Having recently investigated soil strength at the Atterberg limits, the discussers read the paper by Nagaraj et al. (2012) with interest. Whilst some of the conclusions of the paper concur with those of our own work, there are other areas in which we ...

The plastic limit of clays [PDF]
, 2013 The plastic limit of soils was first described by Atterberg in 1911. The thread-rolling test was standardised at the US Public Roads Bureau in the 1920s and 1930s, and has subsequently become one of the standard tests of soil mechanics.
