Characterization and modification mechanism of recycled silty clay slurry as a shield slag conditioner: Macroscopic, mesoscopic, and microscopic multiscale analysis
The large amount of slag generated during the construction of earth pressure balance shield (EPBS) not only incurs significant disposal costs, but also exacerbates environmental pollution.To improve the utilization of the shield slag, silty clay with additive is proposed as a slag conditioner instead of bentonite.Firstly, various macroscopic proper
