Since the water-cement ratio of cement-stabilized soil has a significant influence on strength
and stiffness, this study aimed to investigate a new water-cement ratio selection method for …

In southwest China, red mudstone fill material (RMF) is widely used in constructing railway
subgrades to substitute the conventional unbound granular materials (UGMs). Besides the …

Vibration isolation for vibration-isolated objects in low-frequency vibration environment has
been widely concerned by researchers. In this paper, we designed a local resonant (LR) fish …

This study introduces an innovative approach for estimating the unconfined compressive
strength (qu) of cement-stabilized soil using the non-invasive measurement of small-strain …

Stiffness of soil at very small strains G 0 is mainly affected by void ratio, effective stress and
suction. Empirical equations considering those factors have been proposed to estimate G 0 …

Earth slopes usually exhibit a rotational failure mode when subjected to seismic shaking. In
current seismic rotational slope displacement analysis, the slopes are usually modelled with …

Freeze-thaw (FT) cycle is one of the most important factors contributing to the deterioration of
expansive soil properties in seasonal frozen regions. In this study, a multiscale approach …

Site-specific dynamic soil properties, such as nonlinear stiffness and damping of subsoil,
play a crucial role in assessment of vulnerability of structures incorporating seismic soil …

The study investigated the enhancement of mechanical strength and small-strain stiffness
characteristics of soil blended with Nano-SiO2 and fly ash. Through consistency limits …

Different compaction conditions (water content and density) may induce various soil
structures. The influence of these structures on small strain shear stiffness G seems …
