The Influence of Compaction Methods on the Compressibility Characteristics of Cohesive Soils

Alibrahim, Bashar (Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) - Doğu Akdeniz Üniversitesi (DAÜ), 2019-01)

Over the past decades, engineers aimed to enhance the engineering properties of natural soil deposits, by compaction to reduce compressibility, permeability and increase bearing capacity. The most common compaction ...
Investigation of Relationship between Distortion Settlement, Lateral Spreading and Consolidation Settlement of a Selected Cohesive Soil

Valipourian, Komeil (Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) - Doğu Akdeniz Üniversitesi (DAÜ), 2016)

Long-term settlement of foundation on clay soils is a well-known aspect of geotechnical design. Prediction of the performance of building foundations or embankments can be complicated and expensive in such ground conditions. ...
Secondary Compression of Clay Soils

Garoushi, Ali Hossien Basheer (Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) - Doğu Akdeniz Üniversitesi (DAÜ), 2017)

In this thesis, the behavior of secondary compression of a selected clay soil from Famagusta is assessed by conducting series of one-dimensional consolidation tests on samples prepared with various initial void ratios and ...
