Alkaline activation of fly ash (FA) was used to improve the mechanical performance of a silty
sand, considering this new material as a replacement for soil-cement applications, namely …

The cement-mixed soils technique is an efficient solution to improve the ground
geomechanical properties in infrastructures and construction projects. This paper presents a …

Artificial cemented sand test samples were prepared by using ordinary Portland cement
(OPC) as the cementing agent. Through uniaxial compression tests and consolidated …

This article describes the calibration and experimental validation of the dynamic model of
the train-track system at a culvert transition zone. The dynamic analyses were performed …

Laboratory tests are well recognized as highly appropriate for defining the engineering
properties of geomaterials, in terms of constitutive law parameters for modeling geotechnical …

The paper presents results of unconfined compression strength and seismic wave
measurements during curing on a silty sand stabilized with three type of binders …

Laboratory tests are well recognized as highly appropriate for defining the engineering
properties of geomaterials, in terms of constitutive law parameters for modeling geotechnical …

Monitoring the curing process of mixtures produced by soil, fly ash and alkaline solution can
be effectively performed by ultrasonic measurements of compression and shear wave …

Residual soils show a specific mechanical behaviour classified as on-conventional when
compared with sedimentary transported soils, since the presence of a cemented matrix plays …

The use of alkali activated binders for soil improvement has been significantly increased in
the past decade indicating a significant interest in the use of alternative low carbon binders …
