Selected Physical and Geotechnical Properties of Loess in Wairarapa Valley, New Zealand
Loess up to 10 m thick covers marine terraces, old river aggradation terraces, and gentle hill country slopes in Wairarapa, New Zealand. In the drier eastern and southern parts of Wairarapa, the loess is subject to dry summer and autumn and wet winter and spring in most years.

ABSTRACT This paper describes and analyzes recharge practices in Bács‐Kiskun County, Hungary, within what can be categorized as the farmer domain. Such locally embedded aquifer recharge practices remain underexplored in Hungary. Current research and funding largely focus on large‐scale Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) interventions emphasizing intended ...

Proton‑transfer catalysis controls acylsemicarbazide dissociation, linking proton affinity to exchange kinetics and enabling predictive design of robust, tunable dynamic covalent networks. ABSTRACT We provide design principles for predicting bond exchange kinetics in acylsemicarbazide (ASC)‐based systems that can be applied to tuning the properties of ...

This study introduces a reliability‐calibrated machine learning framework to predict the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of heterogeneous soils. By integrating 15 algorithms with conformal prediction, the models deliver accurate compaction estimates alongside rigorous, distribution‐free 90% confidence intervals.

Influence of Spatial Variability of Tensile Strength on Seismic Cracking of Gravity Dam
Since the uneven construction quality and the inherent heterogeneity of concrete, the material properties of the gravity dam have spatial variability. The spatial variability of the concrete strength parameters will affect the seismic performance of dams,

This review links recent advances in water electrolysis with hydrogen utilization in low‐gradient combustion systems. While hydrogen eliminates direct CO2 emissions, its environmental and economic benefits depend strongly on production pathways, system‐level efficiency, and NOx mitigation through MILD/FLOX/HiTAC combustion.

Damage evaluation in a concrete gravity dam using Smoothed particle hydrodynamics [PDF]
An unexpected failure of a concrete gravity dam may cause unimaginable human suffering and massive economic losses. An earthquake is the main factor contributing to the concrete gravity dam\u27s failure.

Concrete Deterioration Effects on Dynamic Behavior of Gravity Dam-Reservoir Interaction Problems
PurposeIn this paper, the dynamic behavior of ageing concrete gravity dam-reservoir interaction problem is investigated over the ages. The effects of ageing in concrete due to chemo-mechanical actions and the variation of sediment thicknesses over the ...
