Differences in the geotechnical properties of two types of gypsum: alabastrine and porphyritic
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2007)
This study reports an investigation into the physical and mechanical characteristics of fine-grained (alabastrine) and coarse-grained (porphyritic) gypsum from Sivas, Turkey. The geotechnical properties improved as the ...
Lead (II) removal from natural soils by enhanced electrokinetic remediation
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2005)
Electrokinetic remediation is a very effective method to remove metal from fine-grained soils having low adsorption and buffering capacity. However, remediation of soil having high alkali and adsorption capacity via the ...
GIS based susceptibility mapping of karst depression in gypsum: A case study from Sivas basin (Turkey)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007)
A method is presented for mapping of collapse susceptibility using Geographical Information System (GIS). Collapses in karst terrains are very serious geological hazards and can damage engineering structures and cause ...
Correlation of Schmidt hardness with unconfined compressive strength and Young's modulus in gypsum from Sivas (Turkey)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2002)
This study aims to express the relationships between Schmidt rebound number (N) with unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and Young's modulus (Et) of the gypsum by empirical equations. As known, the Schmidt hammer has ...
Flora of gypsum areas in Sivas in the eastern part of Cappadocia in Central Anatolia, Turkey
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2005)
This research was carried out in Sivas province between 2001 and 2003 years and 1450 plant specimens were collected during this period. Identification of the specimens revealed presence of 340 taxa belonging to 164 genera ...
Slaking durability and its effect on the doline formation in the gypsum
(SPRINGER, 2005)
Texture and grain size is of great importance in understanding the mechanical properties of rocks. The aim of this study was to investigate textural and slaking durability characteristics, and correlate them with the gypsum ...
