Geotechnical Behaviour Of Soil Containing Mixed Layered Illite-Smectite Contaminated With Caustic Alkali
(2008-01-29)
The aim of the thesis has been to evaluate and understand the effect of caustic alkali solution of varying composition on the behaviour of expansive soil containing mixed layered minerals. Mixed layered minerals are formed ...
Fracture Behaviour including Size Effect of Cement Stabilised Rammed Earth
(2018-01-30)
Rammed earth is a monolithic construction formed by compacting processed soil in progressive layers. Rammed earth is used for the construction of load bearing walls, floors, sub base material in roadways, airport runways, ...
Shaking Table Tests to Study the Influence of Ground Motion, Soil and Site Parameters on the Initiation of Liquefaction in Sands
(2018-01-12)
Liquefaction is a phenomenon in which soil loses a large percentage of its shear resistance due to increased pore water pressure and flows like a liquid. Undrained cyclic loading conditions during earthquakes cause ...
Factors Controlling the Dispersivity of Soils and the Role of Zeta Potential
(2017-12-07)
Most soil particles loses cohesion and split up the soil mass into individual soil grains when they come in contact with water and get saturated. In dispersive soils the particles detach more spontaneously from each other ...
