Partial replacement of conventional stabilizers with environmentally-friendly and sustainable
materials has recently turned out to be a common approach to enhance the strength and …

The current study aims to assess the influence of EPS beads inclusion on the strength
properties of stabilized poorly-graded sands. Various contents of zeolite and cement as …

The influence of expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads inclusion on the shear stiffness of a
quartz-based material and a calcareous-based material has been examined by performing a …

We examined the compression behaviour of aggregate-expanded polystyrene (EPS)
granular composites using large-size oedometer tests measuring directly the coefficient of …

Recycled rubber in granulated form is a promising geosynthetic material to be used in
geotechnical/geo-environmental engineering and infrastructure projects, and it is typically …

The supporting mechanism of a rigid-flexible composite retaining structure (RFCRS) is
investigated by the discrete element method (DEM) using the rolling resistance linear …

Abstract Compressibility of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) beads in mixtures of sand and EPS
beads is considered by discrete element modeling of beads as clumps of particles bonded …

The compression behaviour of the mixture of glass beads (representing rigid particles) and
EPS beads (representing deformable particles) during the loading-unloading process is …

The mechanical properties of rock materials are closely related to their heterogeneous
internal structure. It is necessary to reproduce the internal structure of rock materials in more …

The structure of aggregate-EPS beads mixtures is heavily affected by their grain size
distributions and compaction conditions and dictates their hydraulic properties. This …
