A Review on Geomembrane Characteristics and Application in Geotechnical Engineering
Authors: Sandra Ghavam Shirazi, Komeil Valipourian, Mohammad Reza Golhashem
Abstract:
This paper represents the basic idea and mechanisms associated with the durability of geomembranes and discusses the factors influencing the service life and temperature of geomembrane liners. Geomembrane durability is stated as field performance and laboratory test outcomes under various conditions. Due to the high demand of geomembranes as landfill barriers and their crucial role in sensitive projects, sufficient service life of geomembranes is very important, therefore in this paper, the durability, the effect of temperature on geomembrane and the role of this type of reinforcement in different types of soil will be discussed. Also, the role of geomembrane in the earthquake will be considered in the last part of the paper.Keywords: geomembrane, durability temperature soil mechanic, soil
