  9. Spectroscopic and thermal analysis of clay mineral-organic composites.

    D'Mello, Nigel.Sheffield Hallam University (United Kingdom).2003

    Composites of clay minerals have been prepared with organic monomers for subsequent study upon polymerisation. Particular combinations of clays and organic species have enabled three unique systems to be studied. The first involves the intercalation of the clay minerals Kaolin and Halloysite with …

  15. Factors Influencing the Post-Earthquake Shear Strength

    Ajmera, Beena DannyVirginia Tech2015

    Although clays are generally considered stable materials under seismic conditions, recent failures initiated in clay layers after earthquakes have emphasized the need to study the cyclic and post-cyclic behavior of these materials. Moreover, if strength loss as a result of cyclic loading were to …
