The effect of exopolymers on the compressibility and shear strength of kaolinite
… and highly compressible. Hydraulic pumping of dredged sediment is a common method for combating damage caused by erosion and subsidence, but the high water content slurry deposited is very compressible with low shear strength. Although conventional soil amendments are effective for reducing …

A Method for Interpreting the In-Situ Consolidation State of Surficial Seabed Sediments using a Free-Fall Penetrometer
… for the rapid characterization of seabed sediments. However, the interpretation of FFP data remains largely a skilled task. In order to increase the reliability of results obtained using these instruments, in both expert and non-expert hands, it is advantageous to establish well defined …
