A comparative study for the performance of encased granular columns
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019 This paper describes a three-dimensional (3D) numerical analysis of a test embankment on geotextile-encased columns (GECs), in comparison with two-dimensional (2D) axisymmetric and plane strain analyses.

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract The construction of bandals (bamboo walls) is a widely practised climate adaptation initiative in Bangladesh, embodying community agency. This article interrogates how it can also represent locally‐led maladaptation—adaptive efforts that inadvertently sustain or exacerbate the very risks they seek to address.

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract Crop yield decline, primarily caused by soil erosion, is a major challenge in rain‐fed agriculture. Massive soil and water conservation (SWC) practices are conducted each year in the country of Ethiopia, including the study sites, to tackle the problems, but there is not enough information about the impacts those practices on crop yields in ...

Seismic Site Effects in Owhiro Bay Quarry, Wellington: Field Observations and Numerical Modelling
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.Local topography and geology are well known factors affecting the intensity of seismic shaking. We have investigated the seismic site effects at a site of the Owhiro Bay Quarry in Wellington, New Zealand, using instrumental records and numerical models.
