 5. In what year the electro-osmosis first succeeded in soil

mainly by removal of the water.

1. Started his studies in 1930 in order to stabilize clays
remediation which was performed in the Netherlands?
11. Full title of our presentation?
7. Terminal where current flows in from outside?
9. Terminal where
4. He first published an account of electro- current flows out.
osmotic flow in 1809 in the Memoirs of the
Imperial Society of Naturalists of Moscow.
6. In 2011, he conducted an investigation of the feasibility of decreasing the water content and increasing the shear strength and axial
load capacity on soft clays by applying the electro-kinetic treatment.

2. In 2011, a study on electro kinetic strengthening of soft marine

clays adjacent to skirted foundations showed an evidence where the
soil’s shear strength was further increased with time after the electric
field was withdrawn.
10. TRUE OR FALSE. Ground improvement by electro-
osmosis can only be used for clay.
