Description
This special issue aims to publish theoretical and practical papers on all aspects of geotechnics for roadways, railways and airways.
Proposed topics to be covered by this special issue are:
- Geotechnical properties of natural soils, rocks, and their mixtures. This also to include manufactured and recycled geomaterials.
- Performance of compacted and stabilized geomaterials used as roadway, railway and airway paving materials.
- Geomaterials characterization for the sustainable design and construction of pavement structures.
- Geomaterials stabilization using cement, lime, fly ash, polymers and other stabilizers for improved performance.
- Geosynthetics, geogrid and state-of-the-art reinforcement techniques for the multi-layer carrying systems of different transportation modes.
- Ground improvement, slope stability and embankment for transportation infrastructures.
- Compaction technology and management
