In this world, several types of soils are available with their different engineering properties.
Determining each soil's engineering properties is difficult because the laboratory procedures …

In this study, gene expression programming (GEP) and multi gene expression programming
(MEP) are utilized to formulate new prediction models for determining the compaction …

Soil compaction involves a densification and a relative variation of physical and mechanical
characteristics of soils. Evaluating laboratory compaction parameters such as maximum dry …

Previous prediction models for soil compaction parameters were developed using limited
data of specific soils and their accuracy also needs to be improved. This study presents the …

Clayey soils in Syria cover a total area of more than 20,000 km 2 of the country, most of
which are located in the southwestern region. In many places of the country, the clayey soils …

Now in its fifth edition, this classic textbook continues to offer a well-tailored resource for
beginning graduate students in geotechnical engineering. Further developing the basic …

For monitoring soil compaction in civil engineering projects, the determination of optimum
moisture content (OMC) and maximum dry density (MDD) are very significant. The present …

The compaction parameters are the most important parameters for any civil engineering
project. In this work, the sand content, fine content, liquid limit, plastic limit, and plasticity …

Soft soil stabilization has been practised for quite some time by mixing additives, such as
cement, lime and fly ash to the soil to increase its strength. However, there is a lack of …

The laboratory determination of maximum dry density (ρ dmax) and optimum moisture
content (w opt) of soils requires considerable time and energy. Efforts have been made in …
