Collapse Potential of Loess under Unloading Effect
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 Collapsible loess is generally characterized by a sudden and substantial decrease in volume that occurs when is applied under constant stress. To evaluate the loess collapse potential, the self-weight collapse and collapse coefficients have been defined ...

Evaluation the effect of clay on collapse potential of soils in different water infiltration patterns [PDF]
مهندسی عمران شریف, 2023 Collapsible soils are one of the moisture sensitive soils that experience sudden and significant settlements due to wetting. These soils are widely distributed and constitute about 10% of the total land area of the world, which are typically located in ...

Evaluation of collapse potential of silty sandy soil stabilized with microsilica, bentonite and rice husk ash [PDF]
مجله مدل سازی در مهندسی, 2015 Collapsible soil is defined as loose deposit with a metastable and porous structure and mostly is found in arid and deserted regions.The particles of soil in the unsaturated state are connected together by capillary tension and in the dry state by ...

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2022 This study includes adding chemicals to gypseous soil to improve its collapse characteristics. The collapse behavior of gypseous soil brought from the north of Iraq (Salah El-Deen governorate) with a gypsum content of 59% was investigated using five ...

Deformation of unsaturated collapsible soils under suction control
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2022 Collapsible soils present significant geotechnical and structural engineering challenges worldwide. They can be found in arid or semi-arid regions and are directly affected by the multi-step wetting procedure due to the reduction of soil suction.

Effect of Initial Water Content on the Collapsibility of Natural and Cement-Treated Gypseous Soils
Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2023 Soils that exhibit high volume change when its water content is changed are considered collapsible soils. Gypseous soils are one of the main types of collapsible soils which can be found in arid and semiarid areas.

The Collapsible Soil, Types, Mechanism, and identification: A Review Study
Journal of Engineering, 2022 Collapsible soil has a metastable structure that experiences a large reduction in volume or collapse when wetting. The characteristics of collapsible soil contribute to different problems for infrastructures constructed on its such as cracks and ...
