Structure and porosity of smectitic mudrocks as affected by experimental wetting—drying cycles and freezing—thawing cycles

CATENA, 1996
Abstract The erosion rates in the Vallcebre basin (Pyrenees) are controlled predominantly by the physical weathering rate of bare regolith, i.e. mudrocks. To obtain information on the influence of thermic and moisture regimes on the weathering dynamics, laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate how freezing—thawing or wetting—drying ...

Experimental Study on the Effects of Wetting-Drying Cycles of Compacted Loess

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
It rains more concentrated in the summer with high temperature and strong evaporation in Gansu province, wetting-drying cycles usually occur in the embankment. Different collapse and uneven settlement appeared on the embankment in loess areas. Based on those engineering disease, through wetting-drying cycles tests of compacted loess, results show that ...

Effect of Wet-Dry Cycling on Swelling and Hydraulic Conductivity of GCLs

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2000
Atterberg limits, free swell, and hydraulic conductivity tests were conducted to assess how wet-dry cycling affects the plasticity and swell of bentonite, and the hydraulic conductivity of geosynth...

Effective stress in swelling soils during wetting drying cycles

Engineering Geology, 2016
Abstract In this study, the cyclic evolution of an effective stress parameter χ is determined for different swelling soils. This parameter can be modelled using the macro-, meso- and microscales in interaction, stemming from mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) tests.

Durability of stabilized base courses subjected to wet–dry cycles

International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 2007
A laboratory study was undertaken to evaluate the durability of cementitiously stabilized aggregate specimens subjected to wet–dry (W-D) cycles, representing a base course in a pavement structure. Specifically, cylindrical specimens of aggregates stabilized with 15% cement kiln dust (CKD), 10% class C fly ash, or 10% fluidized bed ash were prepared ...

Suction controlled wetting-drying cycles on a compacted scaly clay

2005
Due to their structural features and natural water content, scaly clays are being used in Sicily in the construction of core earth dams and waste isolation fills. A reliable design of the earth constructions requires the characterisation of the behaviour of the compacted scaly clay in unsaturated conditions.
