...N.N.S. Yapage; D.S. Liyanapathirana Purpose Several constitutive models are available in the literature to describe the mechanical behaviour of cement stabilized soils. However, difficulties in implementing such models within commercial finite element programs have hindered their application...

...Amir Hossein Alavi; Ali Mollahasani; Amir Hossein Gandomi; Jafar Boluori Bazaz Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop new constitutive models to predict the soil deformation moduli using multi expression programming (MEP). The soil deformation parameters formulated are secant (Es...

...H.I. Park; Y.T. Kim Purpose Reinforced lightweight soil (RLS) consisting of dredged soil, cement, air‐foam, and waste fishing net is considered to be an eco‐friendly backfilling material because it provides a means to recycle both dredged soil and waste fishing net. It may be difficult to find...

... and trenches. There are several parameters that contribute to the stability of slopes. This paper aims to present a new approach, based on evolutionary polynomial regression (EPR), for analysis of stability of soil and rock slopes. Design/methodology/approach EPR is a data‐driven method based...

... of stress and the effect of moisture changes on the deformation behaviour of wood. The second example refers to the application of a three‐phase model for soils to the numerical simulation of dewatering of soils by means of compressed air. The soil is modelled as a three phase‐material, consisting...
