Physical modeling is a powerful tool among experimental methods that has been widely
used to simulate the seismic behavior of various earthquake-related geotechnical problems …

Colloidal silica (CS) is a kind of nanomaterial used in soil/rock grouting techniques in
different branches of civil engineering. Many studies have recently been performed to …

This paper reports results of a full-scale field test to assess the performance of dilute
colloidal silica stabilizer in reducing the settlement of liquefiable soil. Slow injection methods …

This paper describes the design, fabrication and commissioning of a single axis laminar
shear box for use in seismic soil–structure interaction studies. A laminar shear box is a …

Cement stabilization of soil is a useful method to improve the mechanical behaviors and
engineering performance of soils in geotechnical design and construction projects involving …

Physical modelling of scaled models is an established method for understanding failure
mechanisms and verifying design hypothesis in earthquake geotechnical engineering …

This paper describes the results of an experimental investigation on the behaviour of a
lightly grouted loose medium sand under both monotonic and cyclic loading. The …

Permeation grouting is used to fill the voids in soils with particulates for the purpose of
improving soil strength. The technique has been predominatly used for cohesionless soils …

This paper reports the results of two centrifuge tests that were conducted to evaluate the
effectiveness of colloidal silica for liquefaction mitigation. Colloidal silica has been selected …

This paper presents a laboratory investigation into passive stabilisation of liquefiable sands
by means of colloidal silica (CS). In order to examine the improvement of the mechanical …
