Mitigation of collapse characteristics of gypseous soils by activated carbon, sodium metasilicate, and cement dust: An experimental study

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Unsaturated Fluid Flow through Granular Soils Treated with Microbial Induced Desaturation and Precipitation [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The use of microorganisms to induce desaturation of granular soils via denitrification results in nitrogen and carbon dioxide gas generation, which in turn lowers the degree of saturation of the soil matrix.

Setup of axial bearing capacity of open ended tubular steel piles driven in sand

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2020
This paper focuses on the setup of axial bearing capacity of open ended tubular steel piles that are used for offshore foundation systems such as those of wind turbines. A comparative evaluation of the most commonly used models for setup prediction shows

Evaluation of bending moment and deflection of cantilever supported excavations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2017
In many conditions, because of several restrictions, cantilever walls are the only way to stabilize the excavations. It is no doubt that one of the most important parameters in design of such walls is wall stiffness.

The Effect of Confined Granular Soil on Embedded PZT Patches Using FFT and Digital Static Cone Penetrometer (DSCP)

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
This paper presents the effect of confined granular fill on the efficiency of embedded PZT (Lead Zirconate Titanate) patches. The experiments are carried out to capture the dynamic response of confined granular fill and voltage output.

Implications of ideas on super-hydrophobicity for water repellent soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Water repellence is an important factor in soil erosion due to its role in inhibiting the re-establishment of vegetation after fire and due to its enhancement of run-off.
