Effect of Polypropylene Fibers on the Shear Strength–Dilation Behavior of Compacted Lateritic Soils
The stress–dilatancy relationship for fiber-reinforced soils has been the focus of recent studies. This relationship can be used as a foundation for the development of constitutive models for fiber-reinforced soils. The present study aims to investigate the effect of recycled polypropylene fibers on...
