The Effect of Fines Content on Compressional Behavior When Using Sand–Kaolinite Mixtures as Embankment Materials

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
In South Korea, Honam High-Speed Railway has a relatively large residual settlement issue and high fines content has been pointed out as one of the causes. Design guidelines regulate not to use soils containing fines content higher than 25%.

Determination of the transitional fines content of sand-non plastic fines mixtures

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2015
The transitional fines content is the boundary between fines-dominated and sand-dominated behaviour. Experimental and calculation methods for the determination of the transitional fines content of sand-non plastic fines mixtures are summarized based on former studies.

Fine-tuning sugar content in strawberry [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2020
Abstract Fine-tuning quantitative traits for continuous subtle phenotypes is highly advantageous. We engineer the highly conserved upstream open reading frame (uORF) of FvebZIPs1.1 in strawberry ( Fragaria vesca ), using base editor ...

Effects of the Properties of Fines on the Pore Water Pressure Generation Characteristics of Sand–Silt–Clay Mixtures during Cyclic Loading

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
To investigate the effects of the properties of plastic fines on the pore water pressure generation characteristics of fine-grained soils during cyclic loadings, we used 29 sets of test data from the literature and prepared another 21 reconstituted ...

Effects of cyclic loading directions on liquefaction characteristics of saturated coral sand

open access: yesRock and Soil Mechanics, 2021
The large scale construction of both military and civil infrastructures located in Nansha reefs and offshore marine areas, South China Sea, has raised the seismic safety a challenging issue for the projects in the region. The influences of fines content (

Effects of Drying–Wetting Cycle and Fines Content on Hysteresis and Dynamic Properties of Granite Residual Soil under Cyclic Loading

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
In southern China, granite residual soil (GRS) is widely used as road base material. Thus, it is important to study the effects of hot and rainy climates and cyclic loads generated by trains on the dynamic properties of GRS.

Macro- and Micromechanical Assessment of the Influence of Non-Plastic Fines and Stress Anisotropy on the Dynamic Shear Modulus of Binary Mixtures

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2022
Resonant column tests were carried out on Hostun sand mixed with 5%, 10% and 20% non-plastic fines (defined as grains smaller than 0.075 mm) in order to quantify the combined influence of the void ratio (e), anisotropic stress state (defined as σv′/σh ...

Rock fragmentation size distribution control in blasting: a case study of blasting mining in Changjiu Shenshan limestone mine

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2023
Deep-hole bench blasting is the primary method for aggregate extraction in mines. However, factors such as complex geological conditions and suboptimal blasting parameters often result in uneven rock fragmentation and high fines content.

SWCC of Calcareous Silty Sand Under Different Fines Contents and dry Densities

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Investigating the soil-water characteristics of calcareous soil has a great significance for preventing geological disasters on island-reefs as well as maintaining the foundation stability of hydraulic-filled island-reefs. In this study, calcareous silty
