Abstract: Lignin is an industrial by-product, stockpiles of which are rapidly increasing worldwide due to growing demand. Highway subgrade construction has been identified as one of the viable answers to consume huge quantities of ...

Abstract: Lignin is an organic industrial by-product, stockpiles of which are rapidly accumulating worldwide. A feasibility investigation was carried out with respect to the stabilization of silty soils using lignin. The fall cone ...

Abstract: Abstract The geosynthetic-reinforced and pile-supported (GRPS) embankment is a cost-effective and efficient method for addressing soft soil conditions. A noteworthy addition to this approach is the introduction of a precast ...

Abstract: AbstractA sustainable foamed concrete is proposed in this study which incorporates serpentine tailings, MgO, abandoned soil, and CO2 foam for backfilling abandoned urban underground spaces, and is called carbon ...

Abstract: AbstractThis study endeavors to investigate the ability of alkali residue–based foamed concrete (A-FC) to resist sulphate attack. The changes in the physical and mechanical properties, microstructure, and mineral composition ...

Abstract: Despite its wide use as a tool in foundation design, the piezocone penetration test (CPTU) has been rarely recommended to work for design and analysis of laterally loaded piles. Obtaining lateral response of pile foundations ...

Abstract: Over the last decade, several international thermalhydraulics benchmarking efforts have been carried out to support the development of the Generation IV supercritical water-cooled reactor (SCWR) concept. These benchmarking ...
