The Use of Cutting-Stone-Slurry-Waste in Engineering Practice
(2010)
The paper studies the use of cutting stones-water-slurry-waste in engineering applications. Three types of selected clayey soils with different plasticity index and clay fraction were used. The initial physical properties ...
Laboratory simulation of irrigation-induced settlement of collapsible desert soils under constant surcharge
(Springer, 2017-12)
The heterogeneous nature of soil as a load bearing material, coupled with varying environmental conditions, pose challenges to geotechnical engineers in their quest to characterize and understand ground behavior for safe ...
Prediction of minimum factor of safety against slope failure in clayey soils using artificial neural network
(2015)
This paper presents prediction of minimum factor of safety (FS) against slope failure in clayey soils using artificial neural network (ANN). Two multilayer perceptron ANN models were used to predict the minimum factor of ...
The Effect of Treated Waste-Water on Compaction and Compression of Fine Soil
(World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology, 2016)
The main objective of this paper is to study the effect of treated waste-water (TWW) on the compaction and compressibility properties of fine soil. Two types of fine soils (clayey soils) were selected for this study and ...
Investigation on Concrete Compressive Strength Mixed with Sand Contaminated by Crude Oil
(Elsevier, 2013-10)
The leak of oil products due to the huge demand would result in contaminating the sand that might be used in the concrete industry. This paper experimentally investigates the effect of contaminated sand with kerosene and ...
A geoenvironmental application of burned wastewater sludge ash in soil stabilization
(2014-03)
This paper studied the use of burned sludge ash as a soil stabilizing agent. The sludge ash was obtained from a public wastewater treatment plant, and it was burned at 550C. Different percentages of burned sludge ash were ...
Performance of Olive Waste Ash Concrete Exposed to Thermal Cycling
(2010-05)
This paper explores the influence of olive waste ash (OWA) on the performance of concrete to thermal cycling. The performance of concrete to thermal cycling was evaluated by measuring the compressive strength, electrical ...
