The use of lime stabilization and geosynthetic reinforcement is a common approach to improve the performance of fine-grained soils in geotechnical applications. However, the impact of this combination on the soil-geosynthetic interaction remains unclear. This study addresses this gap by evaluating the interface efficiency and soil-geosynthetic interaction parameters of lime-stabilized clay (2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% lime content) reinforced with geotextile or geogrid using direct shear tests at various curing times (1, 7, 14, and 28 days). Additionally, machine learning algorithms (Support Vector Machine and Artificial Neural Network) were employed to predict soil shear strength. Findings revealed that lime stabilization significantly increased soil shear strength and interaction parameters, particularly at the optimal lime content (4%). Notably, stabilization improved the performance of soil-geogrid interfaces but had an adverse effect on soil-geotextile interfaces. Furthermore, machine learning algorithms effectively predicted soil shear strength, with sensitivity analysis highlighting lime percentage and geosynthetic type as the most significant influencing factors.

4 types rubber related geosynthetics were manufactured to examine the performance to for applications to the civil and geotechnical fields, especially to the road construction. Reinforcement and water barrier function of these geosynthetics were interpreted as the important properties. Fiber glass mat based and geogrid based geosynthetics showed the excellent mechanical properties as. Also elastomeric bitumen based geosynthetic showed the highest permittivity. From this, it i s thought that this geosynthetic is suitable for water barrier under specific load condition.

Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCLs) have been used for the applications of the hydraulic containment system in landfill due to inexpensive costs, simple workability and distinguished ability as a barrier material. However, bentonite of GCLs is easy to be damaged by the chemical solutions. Thus, there is a need to evaluate the potential susceptibility of GCLs causing Increase the hydraulic conductivity when GCLs are exposed to raw leachate and dissolved humic substances from landfill leachate. The hydraulic conductivity tests were performed with flexible-wall permeameter (the falling -headwater/rising -tailwater procedure) in order to verify the potential susceptibility of GCLs. The values of the hydraulic conductivity conducted with raw leachate as a permeant liquid increased considerably; however, The change of the hydraulic conductivity in the case of humic and fulvic acid were not worthy of notice. As the results of swelling tests of bentonite, however, humic substances can affect badly on the dispersion behavior of bentonite. These results indicate that humic substances dissolved in leachate could reduce the hydraulic conductivity of GCLs in landfill.

Massive investments are going on to promote and build transportation infrastructure all across the globe with the challenges being more than budgetary. Sandy soils which are predominant in coastal and border areas in India have typical characteristics. The shear strength of such soil is very low which makes it difficult for any kind of geotechnical construction and hence soil stabilization needs to be carried out for such soil conditions. The use of geocells is one of the most economical methods of soil improvement which is used to increase strength and stiffness and reduce the liquefaction potential of the soil. The use of geocells in stabilizing desert sand and results from a series of plate load test on unreinforced soil and geocell reinforced homogenous sand beds are presented in the present study. It also compares the field results using various load class vehicles like heavy load military vehicles on geocell reinforced soils with the experimental results and comes out with the fact that the proposed technique increases the strength and stiffness of sandy soil considerably and provides a solution for preventing settlement and subsidence.

보강 및 차수재인 지반용 고무재료를 열융착법에 의해 제조하였으며 환경공학분야에 적용을 위해 성능을 평가하였다. 이들 재료를 제조하는데 스펀본드 폴리에스테르 부직포, 유리섬유매트, 고강력 폴리에스테르사를 이용한 직포형 지오그리드를 기재로, SBS 함유 탄성 bitumen과 아스팔트를 보강재로 각각 사용하였다. 유리섬유 매트와 지오그리드를 기재로 사용한 지반용 재료의 경우 역학적성질이 우수하였으며, 부직포와 탄성 bitumen을 기재로한 경우에는 투수성이 우수하였다. 고무와 아스팔트를 혼합한 경우 연화점은 거의 변화가 없었으며, 고온에서의 치수안정성은 $120^{\circ}C$의 경우 두드러진 수축이 발생하지 않았다. 지반용 고무재료의 자외선에 대한 저항성은 가시적인 변화가 나타나지 않았다.

Geotextiles form one of the two largest groups of geosynthetics and it is consisted two major types of synthetic material (Woven, Non-woven). The functions of geotextiles are separation, reinforcement, filtration, drainage and as a moisture barrier. Within these functions, however, there are a large number of applications or use areas. Although the many research scholar and engineer developed and established the design criteria and construction methodology of geosynthetics filter layer, because the lack of suitable design terminology and uncertainty of long term durability, sustainable research still needed for optimum design methodology to the complicate field conditions. Especially, more intensive research needed about under the cyclic flow condition and fine silty sand base material. In this paper, the filter model test performed under cyclic flow with various boundary conditions (period and frequency of cyclic flow, types of geosynthetic filter material, surcharge etc.).

Geotextiles and geogrids have been in use for several decades in variety of geo-structure applications including foundation of embankments, retaining walls, pavements. Geocells is one such variant in geosynthetic reinforcement of recent years, which provides a three dimensional confinement to the infill material. Although extensive research has been carried on geocell reinforced sand, clay and layered soil subgrades, limited research has been reported on the aggregates/ballast reinforced with geocells. This paper presents the behavior of a railway sleeper subjected to monotonic loading on geocell reinforced aggregates, of size ranging from 20 to 75 mm, overlying soft clay subgrades. Series of tests were conducted in a steel test tank of dimensions $700mm{\times}300mm{\times}700mm$. In addition to the laboratory model tests, numerical simulations were performed using a finite difference code to predict the behavior of geocell reinforced ballast. The results from numerical simulations were compared with the experimental data. The numerical and experimental results manifested the importance that the geocell reinforcement has a significant effect on the ballast behaviour. The results depicted that the stiffness of underlying soft clay subgrade has a significant influence on the behavior of the geocell-aggregate composite material in redistributing the loading system.

보강토 옹벽의 적용사례가 날로 증가하고, 일반화됨에 따라 그에 따른 피해도 종종 발생하고 있다. 최근 들어 게릴라성 집중강우 등으로 인해 보강토 옹벽이 붕괴되는 사례가 종종 발생되면서 붕괴된 옹벽의 복구방법에 대한 관심이 커지고 있다. 이와 같은 배경 하에 이 논문에서는 (1) 피해상태로 쏘일네일링을 사용하여 복구하는 안과 (2) 붕괴된 보강토 옹벽에 대해 보강토체 제거 후 재시공하는 안에 대해 한계평형해석과 수치해석을 수행하여 안정성과 거동을 분석하여 설계하고 시공한 사례를 소개하였다. 검토결과, 쏘일네일링 복구 옹벽의 경우 보강콘크리트 전면벽체에서 수평변위와 전단변형률 등은 거의 발생하지 않았으나, 재시공 옹벽은 수평변위의 경우 벽체 중앙부에서 발달하고 전단변형률은 옹벽의 저부를 중심으로 나선 형태로 발달하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 피해옹벽은 쏘일네일링으로 복구하였으며, 일련의 시공과정을 소개하였다.

토목섬유를 토목공학에 적용한 이후 토목섬유의 손상에 대하여 많은 관심이 되어왔다. 이 논문에서는 시험시공을 3지점에서 수행했는데 목적은 연약한 점토지반상에서 보강재의 거동을 조사하고 매립시 최적의 시공방법론을 찾기위한 것이다. 이 시험시공에 사용된 폴리에스테르매트(인장강도 15톤)의 봉합부분이 원호활동 사면파괴로 인하여 파괴되었는데 이는 급격한 성토로 인해 과잉간극수압이 발생하여 하중이 증가했기 때문이다. 매트의 인장 파열이 진행되는 지반 거동 중 성토고로 유발될 수 있는 간극수압보다 큰 간극수압이 측정되었는데, 특히 지표하 5m 깊이에서는 장기간에 걸쳐 간극수압이 증가하였다. 이러한 결과를 이용하여 성토고와 연약점토의 융기거동의 관계에 대하여 검토하였다.
