Enhancing the use of natural fibre for geotechnical purposes has attracted greater attention
in the past decade, mainly because of the tangible benefits that this green approach would …

Owing to the occurrence of rain and heat during the same period in the Loess Plateau, the
strong dry–wet cycle results in shallow damage such as erosion. As a result, applying new …

Geomaterials comprise naturally formed materials through geological processes, such as
soils and rocks, or artificially processed materials, including mineral waste and …

Drying-induced cracks and precipitation-induced erosion negatively impact the performance
of soils in the context of extreme weather events. This study introduces two effective and …

Gully bank expansion is a critical process of gully development, with tensile cracks
development being a necessary condition for gully bank instability and collapse. However …

Loess exhibits poor engineering properties, such as low strength and poor water stability.
Conventional materials used for improving loess, such as cement and lime, result in …

Sand instability is always an intractable problem in geotechnical engineering and its
reinforcement using additives is an effective method. This paper introduces the organic …

In this study, the effect of different fiber contents (0.05%, 0.10%, 0.15%, and 0.20%) on the
mechanical properties of low plasticity clay soils reinforced with raw and coated was …

The objective of this study is to explore how different layer thicknesses affect the desiccation
cracking behaviour of vegetated soil. During the experiment, an electronic balance was …

Cement-stabilized soils are widely used in civil engineering applications. However, they
inevitably encounter low-temperature curing conditions, particularly in cold regions. In this …
