Geotechnical characteristics of a Rubber Intermixed Ballast System

Acta Geotechnica - This study aims to promote the concept of using rubber granules from waste tyres as elastic aggregates blended with traditional ballast particles for better performance of rail...     

Microscale boundaries of internally stable and unstable soils

Acta Geotechnica - This study presents a microscale approach for evaluating the internal instability of natural granular soils using the discrete element method. The coordination number and the...     

Shear behaviour of subgrade soil with reference to varying initial shear stress and plasticity index

Acta Geotechnica - The influence of stress anisotropy (K) (i.e. the ratio between effective horizontal and vertical stresses) on the shear behaviour of soils has received significant attention in...
