Stabilization of Highway Pavement Base Using Coal Ash, Experience of Georgia: Laboratory Characterization and Field Evaluation

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2025.
The study introduces slag ash from fuel combustion as a sustainable alternative to bitumen in road construction, improving dynamic deformation by 104%, static deformation modulus by 51%, and elastic modulus by 89%. This approach enhances road quality while reducing environmental impact and production costs.

Granular shear flow in varying gravitational environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Despite their very low surface gravities, asteroids exhibit a number of different geological processes involving granular matter. Understanding the response of this granular material subject to external forces in microgravity conditions is vital to the ...

Study on Mechanical Properties of Gold Mine Tailings Stabilized by Composite Alkali‐Activated Materials

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Gold mine tailings (GMTs) pose significant environmental challenges, and while alkali‐activated materials (AAMs) have been widely used as sustainable alternatives to Portland cement for stabilizing geotechnical materials, further research is needed to optimize their composition and performance, particularly by incorporating traditional industrial waste

Development of Geocapillary Barrier System for Water Retention in Highway Landscaping

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This study investigates the potential use of geosynthetic materials as capillary barriers to enhance water retention in landscaping soils. The soil was first classified using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS); then, the Van Genuchten model was used to model and compare the unsaturated hydraulic characteristics of the soil and geosynthetic ...

Cobalt toxicity in anaerobic granular sludge: influence of chemical speciation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The influence of cobalt speciation on the toxicity of cobalt to methylotrophic methanogenesis in anaerobic granular sludge was investigated. The cobalt speciation was studied with three different media that contained varying concentrations of complexing ...

Strength Improvement of Black Cotton Soil With Cement and Waste Glass Powder for Subgrade Stabilization

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Expansive soils cause volume changes because they swell and lose strength when wet and shrink when dried. Light buildings and pavements constructed over such soils will not last long due to settlement and cyclic volume changes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to blend black cotton soil with cement and waste glass powder (WGP) in order to ...

Sonification of probabilistic feedback through granular synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We describe a method to improve user feedback, specifically the display of time-varying probabilistic information, through asynchronous granular synthesis. We have applied these techniques to challenging control problems as well as to the sonification of

Geotechnical Behavior and Microstructural Analysis of Expansive Subgrade Soils Stabilized With Coffee Husk Ash

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This study examines the enhancement of engineering properties in expansive subgrade soils through stabilization with coffee husk ash (CHA), an agricultural byproduct obtained from coffee husk combustion. CHA was incorporated at 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% by dry soil weight, and the soil–CHA mixtures were cured for 7, 14, and 28 days.

Mechanical and Microstructural Properties of Clay Tile Waste Concrete Treated With Silica Fume

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The increasing generation of Ceramic Clay Tile Waste (CCTW) has prompted the construction industry to explore sustainable alternatives in concrete production. This study investigates the use of CCTW aggregates as a partial replacement for natural coarse aggregates in concrete and silica fume (SF) as a pozzolana, addressing sustainability challenges in ...
