Mathematical Model to Predict Swelling of Expansive Soil

ABSTRACT: In this paper, a simple mathematical model is proposed to predict the swelling behavior of an expansive soil from Saudi Arabia. The model consists of one equation with many parameters. The main advantage of this model is that only one parameter is needed to run the model. While the other model parameters can be determined using the best fitting curve technique. The testing program inc...

Effects of Controlled Drainage Systems to prevent chemical soil degradation in the Area under Sugarcane Cultivation

The Imam Khomeini sugarcane agro-industry is one of ten sugarcane agro-industry plantations in Khuzestan province. As regard as the drains has been installed  in this plantation many years ago so there is water and salt balance in this land that is one of the condition for implementation controlled drainage. This research was designed to investigate the possibility of using a controlled drainag...
