Seismic tomography has been extensively used in geophysics for different purposes, including geological mapping, characterisation of inner earth structure and prospecting for oil and gas. In geophysics, seismic or electromagnetic waves are commonly used to provide tomographic information. In the geotechnical area, seismic tomography is emerging as a pro...
View ArticleThe foundry industry generates large amounts of residual byproducts, such as waste foundry sand (WFS). This high generation has motivated studies concerning the disposition of WFS, which in turn can be used for road subbases. Nevertheless, paving applications are still limited, especially regarding the behavior of WFS when added to a mixture of crushed ...
View ArticleThe improvement of sandy soils by incorporating new stabilizing agents in a physical and/or chemical process has become the subject of many studies in recent decades. In addition, the use of industrial wastes in this process can bring significant benefits to the environment and savings in natural resources. This work aims to evaluate the implications of...
View ArticleNegative traits of bauxite residue (BR) include low shear strength, inconsistent compaction characteristics and dispersion, render it unsuited geomaterial for engineering applications. The present study aims at stabilizing BR with the combination of lime (L) and graphene oxide (GO) in suitable proportions and investigating their impact on improvement in...
