Improvement of Shear Strength of Clay Shale Soil using Polymer-Calcite Precipitation (PCP) as Soil Stabilization Technique

Civil Engineering Dimension
Clay shale is an expansive soil owing to its shrinkage and expansion, leading to geotechnical issues, such as loss of strength. This study explored the effectiveness of the Polymer–Calcite Precipitation (PCP) method in improving clay shale's shear ...

Deformation and Shear Strength Characteristics of Some Tropical Peat and Organic Soils [PDF]

, 2006
Peat and organic soils commonly occur as extremely soft, unconsolidated surficial deposits that are an integral part of the wetland systems. They may also occur as strata beneath other surficial deposits.

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Limonite – a weathered residual soil heterogeneous at all scales [PDF]

, 2012
Limonite is a residual soil produced by the decomposition of magnesium silicate (olivine) rocks in tropical environments. During weathering most of the original rock is leached away leaving only its iron content, which is precipitated out in the form of ...

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Peat Soil Stabilization using Lime and Cement

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018
This paper presents a study of the comparison between two additive Lime and Cement for treating peat soil in term of stabilization. Peat and organic soils are commonly known for their high compressibility, extremely soft, and low strength.

Experimental Study on the Strength Variation of Unsaturated Cohesive Soil in Red Bed with Water Content

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2018
The shear strength parameter of rock and soil is the basis of engineering design. As the rock-soil environment is ever-changing, geotechnical parameters that are obtained at a certain point of time can represent no other than the geotechnical condition ...

Increased shear strength in frictional soil

, 2022
Limit equilibrium analysis (LEA) of slope stability is the main concept in evaluating existing structures and for designing of new ones. When doing a LEA cohesion c’ and friction angle φ’ are conventionally used for strength determination. Since LEA does not properly take consideration of factors contributing to increased shear strength in frictional ...
