... compressibility has yet to be investigated. Temperature enhancement is well-known in landfill engineering, mainly when the bioreactor philosophy is employed. The generated heat gradients affect the solid particles and fluid phases. As a result, the mechanical response of MSW will be different compared...

...A. K. Jha; P. V. Sivapullaiah An attempt was made to study the efficiency of fly ash and lime on the volume change behavior of soil to mask the effect of gypsum. Swell and compressibility of soil mixed with 10 % fly ash and treated with various lime contents (0 %–6 %) in the absence and presence...

...Liqiang Sun; Jiangxin Lu; Wei Guo; Shuwang Yan; Tianqiang Jia In this paper, one-dimensional consolidation and permeability tests are conducted to investigate the compressibility and permeability of reconstituted marine clay that has been used as filling material for a land reclamation project...

The results of this testing program, including the intact material properties, and a characterization of the compression behaviour of clay shale from the Bearpaw Formation is also presented herein. Results show that a reduced specimen size, when working with a hard...

The results indicate that the two testing methods are essentially the same, and that their relevant analysis techniques give similar outcomes...

...A Sridharan; HB Nagaraj Knowledge of the rate at which the compression of the soil layer takes place is essential from design considerations. This can be achieved by determining the value of the coefficient of consolidation, c v . To obtain c v , it is essential to conduct a routine one-dimensional...
