Freezing Characteristics of Mine Waste Tailings and their Relation to Unsaturated Soil Properties
DownloadSpring 2018
The study investigated the feasibility of using the soil freezing characteristic curve (SFCC) to estimate the soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) in mine waste tailings as an alternative to traditional SWCC testing. Traditional SWCC tests are challenging and time-consuming to conduct, taking...

Preliminary evaluation of Speswhite kaolin as a physical analogue material for unsaturated oil sands tailings
Download2023-10-02
Thin-lift deposition of treated oil sands tailings is currently investigated as a potential solution for creating a trafficable cap layer for future reclamation activities. To determine the optimal thickness of the cap layer, physical modeling experiments using the 50g-ton geotechnical beam...
