The Preparation and Properties of Ultra-High-Performance Concrete with Aeolian Sand: A Lab Study on the Effect of the Curing Method. [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials (Basel)
The utilization of aeolian sand (AS) as a substitute for river sand (RS) in ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) offers a sustainable solution to address natural sand resource shortages while enhancing AS utilization. This study systematically evaluates the influence of AS content (0–100% RS replacement by mass) on the workability, mechanical ...

Spatial and temporal evolution of a coastal erg margin: The Middle Jurassic Page Sandstone, southern Utah, USA

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2081-2119, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aeolian deflationary events are erosive to static stages where sediment supply is insufficient to support bedform migration and preservation in the rock record. In the vicinity of shallow‐marine environments, inland rises of relative water table and associated generation of deflationary super surfaces may be driven by the onset of ...

A Triassic chronostratigraphic and palaeogeographic framework for the Utsira High area, northern North Sea: Reconstructing a basin‐scale drainage divide

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2417-2453, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Triassic succession of the northern North Sea comprises a series of interbedded sandstones, mudstones and conglomerates deposited under a fluctuating arid to semi‐humid climate regime, which are often difficult to correlate regionally due to differing lithostratigraphic schemes and poor age control. Despite existing regional studies on the

Dark aeolian sediments in Martian craters: Composition and sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Our research focuses on the mineralogical characteristics of dark sediment deposits in Martian craters (dunes, dune fields, and sand sheets) and their local sediment sources, carried out on the basis of 70 selected localities.

Semi‐analytical solution for the stability of deep vertical shaft considering time‐dependent rock‐structure interaction

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 767-786, September 2026.
A novel cavity contraction solution and multilayer shaft wall model were developed to analyze deep shaft stability, considering rock viscosity, support structures, and water pressure, with successful validation through a Hulusu Coal Mine case study.

Seismic damage behaviour of aeolian sand reinforced concrete columns with I-shaped structural steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
To promote the application of aeolian sand resources for steel-concrete composite structures, an aeolian sand reinforced concrete column with I-shaped structural steel is proposed in this study. Four specimens are designed and manufactured with different

Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Materials, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 834-867, September 2026.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

The north-eastern aeolian 'European Sand Belt' as potential record of environmental changes: A case study from Eastern Latvia and Southern Estonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Latvian and Estonian inland dunes belong to the north-eastern part of the 'European Sand Belt' (ESB). These dunes are widely distributed over broad glaciolacustrine plains and Late Glacial alluvial deltas, considered to be potential sources for the ...

Formation and Alteration of Magnesite Nodules From Kunwarara, Queensland, Australia, as an Analog to Mg‐Carbonate Formation on Mars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Magnesite (MgCO3) is a magnesium (Mg) carbonate mineral that records the aqueous environmental conditions of its formation. On Earth, magnesite forms in metamorphic, diagenetic or pedogenic environments, and distinguishing between these environments is critical for understanding the fluid chemistry during magnesite precipitation. Mg carbonates

Hydraulic reconstruction of catastrophic drainage from the Late Glacial, Lake Fraser, British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 873-887, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Glacial Lake Fraser, which formed in British Columbia against the retreating Cordilleran Ice Sheet, stored ~520 km3 of water before its near‐total drainage into the Salish Sea during an outburst flood event. Despite the impact of the outburst flood on sediment transport and landscape evolution in the Fraser River valley, its peak discharge and
