• Water retention behaviour and microstructural evolution of MX-80 bentonite during wetting and drying cycles (2014, background): “In addition, swelling materials may undergo significant fabric change during hydration (e.g. Al-Mukhtar et al., 1996; Pusch & Schomburg, 1999; Cui et al., 2002; Simms & Yanful, 2002; Romero et al., 2005; Delage & Cui, 2007; Romero & Simms, 2008).”
• A microstructural insight into compacted clayey soils and their hydraulic properties (2013, methodology): “…data on compacted clayey soils, in which mercury intrusion porosimetry MIP is given special attention to describe the pore network and its size distribution (Romero and Simms, 2008), the paper shows the important effects of the initial microstructure and its evolution along suction paths.”
• Mechanical behaviour and micro-structure of cement-stabilised marine clay with a metakaolin agent (2014, unknown): “480 N/m were employed [7,28,32].”
