Factors controlling the morphology and volume (V)–length (L) relations of permanent gullies in the Northern Ethiopian Highlands [PDF]

, 2013
Small-scale aerial photographs and high-resolution satellite images, available for Ethiopia since the second half of the twentieth century as for most countries, allow only the length of gullies to be determined.

“Hidden” Landscape of Prehistoric Burial Monuments: The Use of Remote Sensing in the Detection of Neolithic Long Barrows in Bohemia (Czech Republic)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neolithic long barrows are among the earliest monumental structures in Europe, yet in many parts of Central Europe their surface expression has been largely erased by long‐term agricultural activity. This study evaluates the potential of integrated remote sensing approaches for identifying and contextualizing long barrows and associated ...

The Mechanism of Flow Slides in Cohesive Soils

Géotechnique, 1957
Synopsis The Paper outlines the geological factors and soil conditions at sites of flow slidesand indicates the similarity of the physical properties of cohesive soils in the affected regions of Canada, Norway, and Sweden. The causes and characteristics of flow slides are discussed, and the observed mechanism is used for stability analyses.

Coherence‐Gated Wrapped‐Phase InSAR With Matrix‐Based Uncertainty Diagnostics for Burial‐Mound Hotspot Ranking (Sicily, Italy)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Burial mounds are key elements of Mediterranean funerary landscapes, but in intensively cultivated coastal plains their low‐relief expression is easily obscured by ploughing, levelling and rapidly changing surface conditions, making single‐date observations unreliable.

The meaning of effective soil parameters for determining of the bearing capacity of cohesive soils

Budownictwo i Architektura, 2014
The paper presents the analysis of the bearing capacity of cohesive soils, which was calculated based on the PN-EN-1997-1 methodology. This computations take into account the effect of pore water pressure on the soil strength parameters.

Macroelement modeling of shallow foundations

, 2008
The paper presents a new macroelement model for shallow foundations. The model is defined through a non-linear constitutive law written in terms of some generalized force and displacement parameters.

Pile-Soil Interaction in Unsaturated Soil Conditions [PDF]

, 2014
The degree of saturation has been proven to significantly affect geotechnical engineering designs for foundations. The changes in water content will influence the way the soil behaves, including its strength and stiffness parameters.
