The purpose of making this study is to observe the effects of fraction of fine materials in the soil mixture on the behavior of shear strength. Three series of experiments have been performed throughout the study. Undrained triaxial compression tests (series 1) are performed on specim

Abstract:
Soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) also known as water retention curve is an integral part of unsaturated soil mechanics. SWCC is a constitutive relation in unsaturated soil mechanics where soil suction is related to water content. Wetting SWCCs were determined for different sand-bentonite clay mixtures. With the help of the Van-Genuchten equation, acquired test data were fitted. Wetting SWCC can be related to flow of water through unsaturated zones of soil from the groundwater table to the ground surface. Negative column test was employed to determine SWCC since it is fairly simple

Abstract:
Composite liners are used in landfills to isolate solid waste from the local environment. The combination of a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane and compacted clay liner (CCL) is commonly used worldwide. In the Ontario region, bentonite sand mixtures (BSMs) and the local clay i.e. Leda clay, can be considered as appropriate CCL materials. However, the interface failure between smooth HDPE and CCL is a critical issue for landfill safety. The shear stress behavior and strength parameters at the interface between the HDPE and CCL can be affected by many factors, such as temperature and

Abstract:
High class mold is required for high quality castings. At present, the demands on molding materials are being extended by adding the strict requirement of environmentalists. A suitable variant that meets both demands are green sand molds. The goal of the thesis is to repeatedly cast experimental castings into molds made of 4 types of green sand mixtures. The technological properties of the molds will be compared, the degree of bentonite degradation will be assessed and the surface quality of castings will be assessed according to the amount of adherent molding mixture.

L’interface entre le sol et la structure est une fine couche de sol en contact avec la structure, dans laquelle des contraintes et des déformations se développent.

Abstract:
Expansion or swelling behavior of expansive soil has always created problems in the field of geotechnical engineering. When any construction has been carried out on expansive soil without pre-knowledge of their properties under various environmental conditions, the damage is severe. One of the methods to find out swelling potential of expansive soil is the expansive index (EI). The present study investigates the reduction of EI for the two commercially available expansive soils i.e., kaolinite and bentonite when mixed with Ottawa sand and Class C fly ash.

Abstract:
Electrical properties of rocks are important parameters for well-log and reservoir interpretation. However, laboratory measurements are time-consuming and difficult. I develop here a comprehensive and robust methodology to compute the electrical formation factor from digital images obtained by X-ray tomography, for clean and shaly sands. Key points of this study are finite size effects of the cubes used for computation, and comparison of trends (and not individual data) formed by laboratory-measured and computed properties.

Abstract:
The laboratory study on unsaturated soil may comprise the study of devices or apparatus used and the study of the behaviour of soil itself. In both, suction is the main issue of the study’s concern. One of the common devices for unsaturated soil strength-testing is a suction-controlled direct shear box. With this device, suction is generated by controlling water pressure and air pressure during the test. A relatively rare method in unsaturated soil testing is suction-monitored direct shear. In this test, soil suction is not controlled; rather it is directly monitored by attaching the tensiomet

Furthermore, uncommon testing apparatuses and techniques for measuring the tensile strength of soil and uncompleted theories have not been adequately developed and studied.

Different lithologies were simulated by varying the relative proportion of sand and clay in the mixtures.

However their use as components in engineered waste containment systems is often limited when it comes to the control of organic contaminants as the clays are organophobic in nature.
