Influence of Nonwoven Geotextiles and Geogrids on Shear Strength of Expansive Montmorillonite Clay

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
This study investigates the impact of different geosynthetic reinforcements on the shear strength and swelling behavior of expansive montmorillonite clay. The results highlight the superior performance of geogrids and biodegradable geocells in enhancing soil stability, reducing swelling, and improving soil strength under varying stress conditions ...

Comparative 2D Finite Element Analysis of Soil–Cement Block and Column Reinforcements for Deep Excavation Support

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of soil–cement reinforcement configurations in deep excavations using 2D FEM analysis. It investigates two different approaches to represent soil–cement reinforcement and compares them, showing that blocks reduce lateral deflections by 60%–64% and bending moments by 22% compared to columns.

An Analysis of Soil–Pipe Interaction in Sand by Photoelastic Approach and an Analytical Approximation

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 2145-2160, 25 June 2025.
ABSTRACT In‐situ stress condition is an important aspect of buried unpressurized pipelines. Empirical approaches used for preliminary design are usually based on observations, which may be associated with some errors related to the measurement method. The photoelastic approach represents an alternative, nonintrusive measurement technique to model the ...

A Bio-Wicking System to Prevent Frost Heave in Alaskan Pavements: Phase II Implementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Water within pavement layers is the major cause of pavement deterioration. High water content results in significant reduction in soil’s resilient behavior and an increase in permanent deformation.

Groundwater Hydrodynamic Oscillations From Swash With Transparent Sand (GHOSTS)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Interactions between surface flows and groundwater in beaches can influence erosion and accretion, wave overtopping, groundwater levels and salinization, and transport of nutrients and pollutants. Laboratory experiments using transparent crushed quartz and optically matched mineral oil as proxies for sand and water allow the degree of ...
