This paper describes a probabilistic study of the two-dimensional bearing capacity of a vertically loaded strip footing on spatially random, cohesive soil using numerical limit analyses (NLA-CD). The analyses use a Cholesky decomposition (CD) te[...]

Stabilization design guidelines based on soil plasticity properties have certain limitations. Soils of similar plasticity properties can contain different dominant clay minerals, and hence, their engineering behavior can be different when stabil[...]

During the past decade, the application of vacuum preloading for stabilizing soft coastal clay and other low-lying estuarine soils has become popular in Australia. The cost-effectiveness is a major factor in most projects in view of the signific[...]

The potential shrinkage of eight different geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) subjected to wetting and drying cycles is examined. It is shown that the initial (e.g, off-the-roll) moisture content may affect the initial shrinkage but did not notably[...]

The hydration and subsequent hydraulic performance of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) depend on the water-retention curve (WRC) of the GCL. Because of the inherent difficulty in obtaining the WRC for these materials, limited data exists regardin[...]

The effects on the nature of bentonite, natural sodium, and calcium activated, and of the cation exchange on the diffusive properties of two geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) were examined. Diffusion laboratory tests were conducted to estimate the[...]

The validity of centrifuge modeling of soil systems is investigated by means of a “yielding trapdoor” setup similar to the one used by previous researchers for examining soil arching. A modeling-of-models exercise is thus carried out in accordan[...]

The improvement of locally available soils with cement can provide great advantages, including avoiding the need to borrow volumes of appropriate material and disposing of the local soil in deposits. This research aims to quantify the influence [...]
