Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate variability in reinforcement fibers, peel strength, and internal shear strength of needle-punched reinforced geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs). A methodology was proposed to ...

Abstract: To characterize the role of specimen disturbance and structure in the hydromechanical behavior of collapsible soils, two sets of wetting-induced collapse and suction-controlled triaxial tests were conducted on intact and ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate the strength reduction of heat-treated and non-heat-treated needle-punched geosynthetic clay liners (NP GCLs) at elevated temperatures. For this purpose, a series of stress-controlled ...
