Using Physicochemical Properties Within a Discrete Element Modeling Framework and Fractal Geometry Theory to Understand Behavior of Unsaturated Expansive Clays
Basham, Michelle (2023-12-15)The volumetric deformations associated with expansive soils pose a risk to infrastructure, costing billions in mitigation annually. Many engineering designs assume the soil is in either the dry state or fully saturated. ... -
Validation of Portable Handheld X-Ray Fluorescence (PHXRF) on Stabilized Subgrade Projects for Construction Quality Control and Geotechnical Forensic Investigations
Ferraro, Nathan (2016-05-13)Problematic subgrade soils are often strengthened through pozzolanic reactions and/or cementing using various types of chemical stabilizers, such as lime, cement kiln dust, and fly ash. The amount of stabilizer needed for ...
