Geosynthetics in geoenvironmental engineering
Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2015 Geosynthetics are planar polymeric products, which are used in connection with soil, rock or other soil-like materials to fulfill various functions in geoenvironmental engineering. Geosynthetics are of ever-growing importance in the construction industry.
