Quantification of rheological parameters in deep‐sea mining plumes
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 250-265, March 2026.This study explores the variations in rheological properties observed during the propagation of deep‐sea mining plumes, utilizing rheological test data obtained from kaolin clay plumes. Subsequently, taking into account the differences in sediment properties, the effects of clay content and clay mineral composition on the rheological parameters of ...

Geotechnical Properties of Soils as Influenced by Land Use in a Humid Environment [PDF]
Iranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2011 We investigated some geotechnical properties of soils of Port Harcourt in 2009 under three land use types, namely mechanically cleared land, on-going building constructions and fallow land. A combination of target and random soil survey techniques guided

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.Rainfall‐induced landslides involving on Auckland Volcanic Field scoria cones are highly unusual, compared with widespread landsliding in the surrounding Auckland clay‐rich residual soils. Indeed, while Auckland can suffer from thousands of rainfall‐induced shallow landslides from severe storms at subdecadal timescales, these are usually limited to ...

Determination of Atterberg Limits using the vane shear test method
Bulletin of the Mineral Research and ExplorationAtterberg limits are important index parameters used to classify soils for various engineering applications. Engineering properties of soils are predicted through simple correlations with index properties and thereby the engineering behavior of soils are

Swelling Potential of Fine‐Grained Soil: Theory, Determination, and Validation
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Swelling potential (SP) has long been used as a terminology to describe a soil's expansibility. It is commonly defined in terms of pressure or deformation under certain constraints. However, fundamentally, SP originates from the soil‐water interactions in the interlayer space of expansive minerals and should not depend on displacement or force

Effect of Compaction Effort and Initial Conditions on the Unsaturated Properties of Red Clay Soils
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.In geotechnical engineering, the principle of saturated soil mechanics is used in the construction of structures. However, defining the constitutive unsaturated soil model requires significant laboratory testing, and directly measuring the parameters of the soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) by the pressure plate test is time‐consuming.
