On the role of geofoam density on the interface shear behavior of composite geosystems
Abstract Expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam has been increasingly used in geotechnical engineering applications to replace conventional backfill material or to reduce earth pressure on retaining and buried structures. In most of these applications, geofoam blocks are installed in direct contact with...
