The microbial-induced calcite precipitation(MICP)technique has been developed as a sustainable methodology for the improvement of the engineering characteristics of sandy soils.However,the efficiency of MICP-treated s...
Clay deposits typically exhibit significant degrees of heterogeneity and anisotropy in their strength and stiffness properties.Such non-monotonic responses can significantly impact the stability analysis and design of...

The deep cement mixing(DCM)is used to improve the capacity and reduce the settlement of the soft ground by forming cemented clay columns.The investigation on the mechanical behaviour of the DCM samples is limited to e...
Lime-treatment of clayey soil significantly increases its shear and tensile strengths.Consequently,the tensile strength of lime-treated soils deserves careful investigation because it may provide an appreciable benefi...

This study presents a hybrid framework to predict stability solutions of buried structures under active trapdoor conditions in natural clays with anisotropy and heterogeneity by combining physics-based and data-driven...
Little research can be found in relation to the stability of anisotropic and heterogenous soils in three dimensions.In this paper,we propose a study on the three-dimensional(3D)undrained slopes in anisotropic and hete...
