Granite residual soil (GRS) exhibits favorable engineering properties in its natural state. However, a hot and rainy climate, combined with vibrations generated during mechanical construction, can cause a notable decrease in its strength. In this study, ...

The swelling-shrinkage behavior of expansive soils under climate changes will cause the crack development, which can be destructive of expansive soil slopes. This study investigated the effect of drying/wetting cycles on the stability of an expansive soi...

Seawater mixed (SW) concrete lessens the freshwater (FW) demand and eases the stress on the already depleting FW resources. The use of SW concrete is a sustainable solution that mitigates the environmental impact of concrete production, especially in coa...

Concrete structures are considered as durable construction material, but corrosion of the embedded steel reinforcement occurs under chloride exposure as concrete has porous properties. Herein, a cyclic drying?wetting test was performed for two years usin...

Decreases in wind speed (i.e., terrestrial stilling) and radiation (i.e., solar dimming) have been identified as important causes of aridity change both globally and regionally. To understand how their roles have varied across different natural and socio...
