Journal Article
Eyo, E. U., Ng'ambi, S., & Abbey, S. J. (2019). Effect of intrinsic microscopic properties and suction on swell characteristics of compacted expansive clays. Transportation Geotechnics, 18, 124-131. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trgeo.2018.11.007

© 2018 Elsevier Ltd The complex swelling mechanism in expansive clays during moisture ingress can be succinctly explained by an examination of their core mineralogy, microfabric, grain size and suction response. This note has attempted to investigate... Read More about Effect of intrinsic microscopic properties and suction on swell characteristics of compacted expansive clays.
