Systematic statistical approaches in classifying physical properties of soft marine clay / Lim Jit Kheng … [et al.]

In this paper, a rational framework in classifying soil properties using systematic statistical approaches has been proposed and illustrated through a case study using some simple physical index properties of soft marine clay in Peninsular Malaysia. The framework includes an initial data screening,...
