Alternative Methods for Wet-Dry Cycling of Geosynthetic Clay Liners
Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2016AbstractAlternative laboratory approaches for cyclic permeation-desiccation experiments on geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) specimens are compared. Permeation cycles for hydraulic conductivity (k) are conducted in flexible-wall permeameters. Subsequent desiccation cycles are conducted using one of three approaches: (1) unconfined desiccation involving ...

Instrument for Wetting-Drying Cycles of Expansive Soil Under Loads
2018In this study, an instrument is developed to study the effect of wetting-drying cycles on the shear strength of expansive soil. The testing error of the developed device is investigated as well. By using this device, the water content of soil sample can be accurately controlled, and the vertical loads at different soil depths can be simulated.

Chloride Resistance of Recycled Aggregate Concrete under Wetting-Drying Cycles
Key Engineering Materials, 2016Recycled aggregates concrete (RAC) becomes an important participant in recycled materials. This study was performed in order to evaluate the effect of recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) on the chloride resistance of concretes with different coarse aggregates replacement ratio under wetting–drying cycles. Composition influence on the concrete were studied

Suction controlled wetting-drying cycles on a compacted scaly clay
2005Due 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.
