Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) geofoam: An introduction to material behavior

Geotextiles and Geomembranes, 1994
Abstract The new geosynthetic product category of ‘geofoam’ was proposed in 1992. It encompasses polymeric and non-polymeric foams that are used in geotechnical applications. Geofoams perform functions that traditional geosynthetic products cannot. In addition, geofoams can be used to complement or enhance the function of other geosynthetics.

Numerical parametric study of expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam seismic buffers

Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 2009
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam seismic buffers can be used to reduce earthquake-induced loads acting on rigid retaining wall structures. A numerical study was carried out to investigate the influence of wall height; EPS geofoam type, thickness, and stiffness; and excitation record on seismic buffer performance.

Effectiveness of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Beads Size on Fly Ash Properties

International Journal of Geosynthetics and Ground Engineering, 2020
The present study focused on laboratory investigation of fly ash mixed with expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads. Different sizes of EPS beads were mixed with fly ash to study the effect on maximum dry unit weight, cohesion, angle of internal friction, California bearing ratio (CBR) value, coefficient of consolidation, and permeability.

Laboratory study of expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam used with expansive soils

Geotextiles and Geomembranes, 2008
Abstract The reduction of transmitted lateral swelling pressures on retaining structures constructed in expansive soils is investigated. Swelling pressures will develop if the soil is not allowed to swell freely. The magnitude of swelling pressure depends on the degree of expansion permitted.

Assessment of strength under compression of expanded polystyrene (EPS) slabs

2016
The data obtained in testing expanded polystyrene (EPS) slabs subjected to short-term compression are discussed. The results demonstrated that the compressive strength of the slabs should be determined according to critical stress taking into account the type of deformations shown in the stress-strain diagram.

Shear strength and modulus of elasticity of expanded polystyrene (EPS)

2010
Lietuviška santrauka. Polistireninis putplastis (EPS) daugiasluoksnėse pastatų atitvarose gali būti veikiamas šlyties įtempių. Kadangi EPS užtikrina visos konstrukcijos stabilumą, tai būtina tiksliai įvertinti šlyties įtempių poveikį termoizoliaciniam konstrukciniam polistireninio putplasčio sluoksniui.
