Mitigación de grietas por desecación en suelos finos mediante el uso de fibras sintéticas

Autor: Hernández Valerio, Carolina, Botero Jaramillo, Eduardo, Encalada López, David Alejandro, Najdi, Abdallah, Prat Catalán, Pere, Ledesma Villalba, Alberto

Los suelos arcillosos tienen la propiedad de hincharse en presencia de agua y contraerse en su ausencia, produciendo así grietas por desecación que alteran significativamente su desempeño mecánico e hidráulico. En este estudio se investigó la m

In the transport of heat in porous media, diffusion generally dominates over advection due to slow fluid velocities imposed by low permeability. This is the reason why standard Galerkin formulation leading to extra non-symmetric matrix terms may be s

Cracking in desiccating soils is an important topic in soil compacted works. This paper presents an experimental study on the effect of compaction on the cracking of a silty clay soil, which was subjected to drying conditions. The specimens were comp

This paper presents a numerical study of the desiccation processes of low-plasticity clayey soils that usually result in shrinkage and often in cracking. For the theoretical development of the numerical model, concepts of Unsaturated Soils Mechanics
