Studies about the strain-softening behavior of unsaturated soils published in the literature
during the past three decades are summarized under three categories; namely:(i) …

The present research investigates the undrained behavior of calcareous sand of Qeshm
island in the south of Iran. The study was performed through undrained cyclic and monotonic …

Gypseous soil poses a significant challenge in geotechnical engineering due to its
susceptibility to collapse under saturation. This type of soil covers approximately 33% of …

Particle breakage plays a pivotal role in shaping the deformation behavior of granular soils
when subjected to compression. To comprehensively assess the influence of particle …

A large part of ocean surface is covered by calcareous deposits. The Low stiffness and weak
particles of calcareous soils deposited by marine organisms showed significant particle …

The resistivity is a prevalent way to determine the soil moisture content in unsaturated
triaxial test. However, the limited space of the unsaturated triaxial apparatus limits the …

To better achieve the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei coordinated development strategy, many
infrastructure projects were carried out in Xiongan New Area, Hubei Province, China. Due to …

Sedimentation of irrigation canals is one of the major challenge that affects their hydraulic
control and operation. The sedimentation reduces water conveyance capacity and may lead …

Firstly, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. Idil Deniz Akin for
providing me the opportunity to pursue a master's degree and for her consistent support and …
