Sustainable Stabilization of Loess Soils Using Marble Powder: Improvement of Mechanical Properties

ITEGAM-JETIA
The instability of clayey soils poses a major challenge in geotechnical engineering, especially in arid regions where water infiltration causes a rapid loss of strength and cohesion.

Reproductive stages in lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) occur earlier with increasing temperature

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Climate change is altering the timing of many plant phenological events, yet most studies focus on flowering, with less attention given to later reproductive stages such as fruit development and ripening. Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry) is an important perennial berry species that may be sensitive to these changes.

Experimental Study on Negative Skin Friction on Piles in Collapsible Soils due to Inundation [PDF]

, 2016
Collapsible soil is a special type of soil, classified as problematic soil. It possesses a high strength in the unsaturated phase and loses its strength and exhibits substantial settlement when inundated.

Hydro-Mechanical Behaviour of Collapsible Soils

, 2014
In dieser Arbeit wird das Kollapspotenzial von drei verschiedenen Böden mittels klassischer Versuche als auch mittels saugspannungskontrollierter Oedometerversuche bei schrittweiser Bewässerung untersucht. Zusätzlich wurden Säulenversuche durchgeführt, um den zeitlichen Verlauf des hydromechanischen Prozesses zu bestimmen.

Fundamentals, Advances, and Applications of Electrospun Nanofibrous 3D Materials

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional electrospun nanofibrous systems offer unique properties and microenvironments. These properties are determined by the fabrication strategies employed and can be adjusted by the incorporation of functional additives to achieve multifunctionality for specific applications. The applications range from the biomedical to the environmental,

Effect of reinforcement fibers on the collapse potential of clayey sands

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The collapse of soils under wetting is a major problem in Geotechnical engineering. The erection of structures on these types of soils, located in arid and semi-arid zones, needs careful treatment of these soils.

Geophysical investigation and in situ treatment of collapsible soils

, 2004
Meta-stable soils (i.e. those prone to collapse) occur worldwide, resulting in soil collapsibility being a global problem. Such soils can be naturally occurring or man made, and loess, one of the most common natural collapsible soils (often found ...

Optimizing Strategies for Non‐Invasive Prospection of Settlements in the Intertidal Zone: A Case Study From the Centre of the Drowned Medieval Village of Tolsende (Scheldt Estuary, the Netherlands)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...
