State‐of‐the‐Art Review: Fiber‐Reinforced Soil as a Proactive Approach for Liquefaction Mitigation and Risk Management

Journal of Engineering, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Soil liquefaction is a phenomenon that occurs in which the behavior of soils changes from solid to viscous liquid due to the effect of earthquake intensity or other sudden loadings. The earthquake results in excess pore water pressure, which leads to saturated loose soil with weaker characteristics and potentially causes large ground deformation and ...

Degradation Kinetics and Durability Enhancement Strategies of Cellulosic Fiber‐Reinforced Geopolymers and Cement Composites

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The need to overcome the low energy‐absorbing response and low tensile strength of geopolymers and cementitious materials has motivated researchers to develop fiber‐reinforced composites. Interestingly, natural cellulosic fibers provide exciting prospects for advancements in bio‐based materials compared to synthetic fibers. Incorporating fibers in such
