New Correlation Equations for Compression Index of Remolded Clays
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Compressibility of a soil mass is among the most important geotechnical properties that is widely used during the design of geotechnical structures. Various regression equations have been proposed by numerous researchers ...
Reduction in Fully Softened Shear Strength of Natural Clays with NaCl Leaching and Its Effect on Slope Stability
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Landslides and slope failures in natural clay-rich materials are frequently observed in coastal areas and other areas where these materials were deposited in a saline water environment. High sodium chloride (NaCl) concentration ...
Discussion: Probabilistic Analysis of Randomly Distributed Fiber-Reinforced Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Stable Nanofluids for Convective Heat Transfer Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nanofluids are stable dispersions of ultrafine or nanoscale metallic, metal oxide, ceramic particles in a given base fluid. It is reported that nanofluids register an extraordinarily high level of thermal conductivity, and ...
Dynamic Properties of Lightweight Cellular Concrete for Geotechnical Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Lightweight cellular concrete (LCC) materials have been used in various civil engineering applications for several decades. In this study, the dynamic behavior of LCC materials was evaluated for possible geotechnical ...
Characterization of the Reduction in Undrained Shear Strength in Fine-Grained Soils due to Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To evaluate the effect of plasticity characteristics and mineralogical composition on postcyclic shear strength degradation, 18 soils, prepared as different proportions of kaolinite, montmorillonite, and ground quartz, ...

Compaction Characteristics, Unconfined Compressive Strengths, and Coefficients of Permeability of Fine-Grained Soils Mixed with Crumb-Rubber Tire
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, five different weak soils were mixed with five different sizes of crumb rubber in six different proportions and used to understand the influence of the size and quantity of crumb rubber on the compaction ...
Settlement of Reinforced Sand in Foundations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The technique of reinforcing soil for foundation improvement is well established. This paper addresses the aspect of settlement of reinforced sand foundations, where the major part of the existing work deals with the aspect ...
