Discussion: Development of a single-point method to determine soil plastic limit using fall¿cone data [Geotech Geol Eng 41:4473-4485, 2023]
(2024)
This discussion article presents a critical appraisal of three empirical correlations developed via multiple regression analysis and presented in the Kayabali et al. [Geotech Geol Eng 41:4473–4485, 2023. https://doi.org/ ...
Discussion: The effect of surface roughness and shear rate during fall-cone calibration
(2022)
The fall-cone test is one of the most popular methods used to characterise fine-grained soils. Traditionally, the fall-cone has been used to determine the liquid limit. However, the undrained shear strength of a given soil ...
Review of recent developments and understanding of Atterberg limits determinations
(2021)
Among the most commonly specified tests in the geotechnical engineering industry, the liquid limit and plastic limit tests are principally used for (i) deducing useful design parameter values from existing correlations ...
Unconfined Compression Strength and Point Load Index dataset for Irish rocks
(Trinity College Dublin, 2022)
An Evaluation of the Feasibility of Several Industrial Wastes and Natural Materials, as Precursors, for the Production of Alkali Activated Materials
(2019)
In order to face current compelling environmental
problems affecting the planet, the construction industry needs to
adapt. It is widely acknowledged that there is a need for durable,
high-performance, low-greenhouse gas ...
Monitoring the Static Vehicle Load on a Heavy Goods Vehicle
(2015)
Static vehicle load can be calculated accurately from measurements of axle strain. This paper describes, in outline form, a series of laboratory and field tests on an instrumented heavy goods vehicle. The vehicle was ...
Converting optimum compaction properties of fine-grained soils between rational energy levels
(2023)
This study introduces a practical energy conversion (EC)-type modeling framework capable of converting the
optimum compaction properties of fine-grained soils between any two rational compaction energy levels (CELs).
Model ...
Large expert-curated database for benchmarking document similarity detection in biomedical literature search
(2019)
Document recommendation systems for locating relevant literature have mostly relied on methods developed a decade ago. This is largely due to the lack of a large offline gold-standard benchmark of relevant documents that ...
Quantification of submarine/intertidal groundwater discharge and nutrient loading from a lowland karst catchment
(2014)
Summary Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is now recognised to be a process of significant importance to coastal systems and is of increasing interest within oceanographic and hydrologic research communities. However, ...
