This study assessed the dispersivity of soils extracted from the northern region of Cartagena de Indias (Colombia) using the pinhole test, crumb test, and chemical?microstructural analyses. Dispersive soils are susceptible to erosive phenomena upon conta...

Although drillholes in modern and ancient ostracods are known, the record is relatively scarce when compared to other taxa, and mainly exist with reference to the marine environment. Moreover, less is known about perforated ostracods, and more generally,...

The macroscopic mechanical properties of natural sedimentary soft soils, which are usually linked to their microstructure, are different from those of remolded soils. The interaction between soil structure and mechanical behavior is a manifestation of st...
