Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract This study examined the spatiotemporal variability in geotechnical properties of beach cusp sediments on a sandy beach and tested if such variability can be used for cusp monitoring from satellite imagery. Specifically, sediment properties (including moisture content (w), relative density (Dr), sediment strength (QSBC) and friction angle (ϕ ...

Assessment Of Designed And Measured Mechanistic Parameters Of Concrete Pavement Foundation
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2019 There are plenty of in situ tests available to examine pavement foundation performance regarding stiffness and support conditions. This study evaluates several in situ tests of the stiffness and support conditions of concrete pavement foundation layers ...

A Case Study on Distresses of Concrete Pavements Supported on a Retaining Wall
Applied Sciences, 2023 Embankments and retaining walls are integral parts of the bridge system and provide a smooth transition from lower elevations (i.e., roadways) to higher elevations (i.e., bridge decks).

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 2648-2669, 10 April 2026.ABSTRACT This study presents large deformation computational methods to simulate lateral vehicular impacts on steel piles in granular soil. Soil‐mounted longitudinal barrier systems rely on energy dissipation in both the piles and the surrounding soil to safely redirect errant vehicles, so dynamic pile‐soil interaction is important for design ...

Soil Use and Management, Volume 42, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.ABSTRACT Agricultural management produces soil compaction depending on intensity of use, specific management and soil properties. We used an adapted, home‐built dynamic penetrometer to evaluate 20 long‐term sites of arable land, tree orchards, vineyards and grassland in Europe and China, each with different tillage and cover crop strategies.

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.Rainfall‐induced landslides involving on Auckland Volcanic Field scoria cones are highly unusual, compared with widespread landsliding in the surrounding Auckland clay‐rich residual soils. Indeed, while Auckland can suffer from thousands of rainfall‐induced shallow landslides from severe storms at subdecadal timescales, these are usually limited to ...

Fruit Texture Measurement: A Review of Biological and Mechanical Interactions
New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.Textural changes are an important aspect of fruit ripening. Accurate measurement of texture allows for a scientific understanding of fruit development including aspects of maturation and ripening, the effect of storage treatments, and the sensory acceptability for a range of fruit species.
