The use of various reinforcing materials is widely used for the stabilization and stabilization of beds, infrastructure, and soil slopes. Geosynthetics are one material and offer the advantages of high durability, reasonable price, wide application, and fast execution. Depending on the application, Geosynthetics come in different types, including geotextiles, Geocells, Geomembranes, Geogrids, Geofoams, Geonets, and Geocomposites. Each of these types plays a role in various fields such as reinforcement, isolation, moisture barrier, erosion control, and drainage, and considering that in the field of increasing soil bearing capacity, Geocells are the best type. Geocell has a very good performance in terms of increasing the bearing capacity compared to flat reinforcements, due to its cellular structure and providing the necessary confinement for the soil inside the cells. The use of Geocells is welcomed by many researchers due to the three-dimensional nature of their lattices. A unique poriferous Geocell was developed using unique technology through research on a threedimensional honeycomb-type Geocell for enhancing bearing capacity, reinforcing soil fields, and vegetation base layers. In this paper, the characteristics of the original poriferous network structure are evaluated and the results are presented. The newly developed poriferous Geocell, which has passed the property evaluation, is expected to be applied as a competitive method in related fields in the future due to its excellent friction properties and differentiated permeability properties.
Landslides are tectonic and morphological indicators. The Morphotectonics Index is a suitable tool for probability estimation and earthquake planning in the region. Landslides are the most common natural threat in Iran. A sustainable management plan requires landslide hazard zoning planning. Therefore, the estimation of landslide risk in selected areas using the morphological index is the purpose of this study. Rivers are very sensitive to tectonic movements, and river landforms are closely radiated to tectonic movements. The Deformation Tectonic Index was used as a tool to identify new and active structures for these movements. The SAQEZ River Basin is located in the northwest of the country according to its characteristics. Its landform has a high flood capacity and a moderate slope of about 33.01%, resulting in severe erosion and flooding in the area. The purpose of this study was to analyze tectonic activity in the SAQEZ River Basin using remote sensing software and topographic maps and digital elevation models in a GIS environment. In this study, four morphological and structural indices, including river length gradient index (SL), basin shape index (BS), river tortuosity index (Sr), and basin asymmetry factor (Af), were used, and their results were analyzed. An analysis is expressed as the Active Tectonic Index (IAT). According to the survey results, the values of the SL, BS, Sr, and Af indices were 207, 1.09, 1.27, and 66, respectively. The Active Tectonic Index (IAT) shows moderate tectonic activity in the area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
