TL;DR: In this article, a numerical study was conducted to investigate pile-soil-geosynthetic interactions by considering three major influence factors: the height of the fill, the tensile stiffness of geosynthetics, and the elastic modulus of pile material.

TL;DR: A geotechnical testing program was conducted to evaluate the engineering properties of aged solid waste samples retrieved from a landfill that began accepting waste as early as 1940 The conducted tests included water content, specific gravity, Atterberg limits, grain-size distribution, compaction, permeability, consolidation, triaxial, and direct shear Maximum dry unit weight achieved using the Standard Proctor Test was approximately 93 kN/m3 at a water content of 31% Compression Index values, Cc, derived from small-scale (635 mm in diameter), one-dimensional consolidation tests

TL;DR: The objectives of this paper are to identify and evaluate parameters that can be used to define the end of the postclosure monitoring period and to present a conceptual framework for an investigation of whether post closure monitoring can be terminated at a landfill.

TL;DR: In this paper, changes in waste compressibility as a function of the state of decomposition are reported, and the magnitude of compressibility was shown to increase as refuse decomposed and compressibility parameters were correlated with the decomposition.

TL;DR: Physical and strength properties of CLSM formed by combining sludge, a by-product from the treatment of acid mine drainage, with Class F FA are investigated and a main focus of this research is to develop a CLSM mix in which by-products material utilization is maximized while satisfying workability and performance requirements.
