Abstract:In this paper, an experimental approach is employed to investigate the reinforcing impact of geogrids on the dry-shrinkage cracking of loess. At various evaporation temperatures and for varying specimen thicknesses, the evolution of the surface fissures induced in the loess samples with and without geogrids was monitored and analyzed. According to the findings, the evaporation rate of the samples increased when the evaporation temperature was increased, and the thickness of the samples was reduced under the sa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
