A Multiple Soil Threats Assessment for Europe by 2050

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 9937-9952, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT European soils are exposed to multiple interacting soil threats (STs), challenging the European Commission's objective of restoring healthy soils by 2050. This study provides the first integrated EU‐scale projection of four major soil threats—soil compaction, soil organic carbon loss, soil erosion and soil sealing—under two IPCC climate ...

Experimental and numerical study on the effect of friction between crack faces on fracture parameters of hot mix asphalt concrete

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
This article investigates the effect of friction between crack faces in ASCB (asymmetric semi-circular bend) specimen on fracture parameters of hot mix asphalt concrete. To achieve this, fracture tests were conducted on ASCB specimens containing cracks with different angles (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40°).
