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

Fiber-reinforced soils have been increasingly used in geotechnical engineering. Over the
years, research has sought to understand and investigate the influences of fibers as …

Every year millions of bottles of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) are discarded into the
environment, when in fact these materials have a high potential to be recycled and/or …

The fundamental mechanisms controlling shear strength and deformability behavior of clay-
fiber mixtures have still not been well established, nor the constraints that may affect their …

Annually, large amounts of waste Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bottles are discarded
worldwide, although their properties can be useful in engineering works, such as soil …

Although vegetable fibers demonstrate great advantages as a reinforcement element, their
degradation susceptibility is currently the main concern in geotechnical works and requires …

The introduction of fibres into soil can effectively improve its engineering properties.
Systematically understanding the unsaturated mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced soil …

The stress–dilatancy relationship for fiber-reinforced soils has been the focus of recent
studies. This relationship can be used as a foundation for the development of constitutive …

To investigate techniques that focus on mining waste applied to geotechnical works, the
mechanical behavior of mining waste reinforced with polymeric fibers has been studied. The …

A Jute-HDPE composite structured geotextile was developed to improve the performance of
earthen structure of river embankment. The optimized geotextiles (430 g/m 2) containing …
