The present work aims to propose a model for calculating unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of soil stabilized by geopolymer based on gene expression programming (GEP). new is compared with earlier models developed from artificial neural networks (ANN), multivariable regression analysis (MVR), multi-gene genetic (MGGP), and support vector machines (SVM) models. results indicate that the GEP superior MVR MGGP quite comparable ANN SVM study demonstrates robustness through parametric analysis. Additionally, this simpler easier use in practice.

Abstract Geopolymer is produced through the polymerization of active aluminosilicate material with an alkaline activator, leading to formation a green, inorganic polymer binder. concrete (GPC) has become promising low-carbon alternative traditional Portland cement-based (OPC). GPC-bonded reinforcing bars offer for structures, boasting excellent geopolymer binder/reinforcement bonding and superior corrosion high-temperature resistance compared cement. However, due differences in production process GPC, there are distinct engineering property variations, including characteristics. This literature review provides examination manufacturing procedures encompassing source materials, mix design, curing regimes, other factors directly influencing properties. Additionally, it delves into bond mechanism, tests, corresponding results that represent The main conclusions GPC generally mechanical properties performance ordinary cement proper standardization needed its tests limit contradictory lab on site.

For the massive quantities and negative impacts of dredged mud slurry, its disposal utilization have become one most noticeable issues in world. In this paper, flocculation-solidification-high pressure filtration combined method is proposed to effectively dispose marine slurries. The advantages are demonstrated herein following three aspects: dewatering performance, material savings, shear strength treated slurry. Then, effects anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) dose, composite solidification agent initial water content slurries, thickness geo-bags on mechanical properties slurry by studied. Experimental results show that with increasing doses APAM, structures slurries more stable, optimal dose APAM determined as 0.16%. Moreover, increase decrease both contribute method.
