Experimental Investigation of the Effects of Moisture Levels on Geocomposite Drainage–Geomembrane Interface Shear Behavior
Original research · free full-paper access · authors credited
Research overview
Large-scale direct shear tests compare drainage-geocomposite interfaces with smooth and textured geomembranes at different moisture levels. Texture and wetting affect peak and large-displacement strength, supporting site-specific cap stability testing.
