Research summary
AI-generated

Amy Getchell's research focuses on geotechnical engineering, particularly the mechanical and permeability behavior of soils and aggregate materials used in pavements and foundations. Work includes testing methods for soil stiffness and drainage properties, as well as chemical treatments (such as Laponite, a synthetic clay additive) to modify the pore fluid and structural behavior of granular soils. Applications span pavement subbase design and geotechnical testing methodology.
