Compacted clay possesses a low water permeability and has been widely used in geo-environmental facilities such as landfill cover systems.Recent studies revealed the potential applications of compacted biochar-amended...
Fine unsaturated soils are used in many applications, particularly in road infrastructure and in construction. These materials undergo deformations according to the stresses to which they are subjected. The purpose of...
