Experimental study of strain accumulation of silica sand in a cyclic triaxial test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The experimental and phenomenological investigation of the elasto-plastic long-term behaviour of soils under dynamic loading is important for the development of risk analysis tools and numerical accumulation models for settlement prediction.

Neural network with signal parameters featuring for near‐surface velocity model building

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a method that integrates spectral recomposition (SR) with a neural network to improve near‐surface seismic analysis. The approach incorporates SR‐derived wavelet‐timing attributes into a fully convolutional network (FCN) to enhance the characterization of shallow subsurface structures. Field evaluation was conducted using S‐

Anisotropy effects on the undrained stability of cuts in clays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
It has long been recognised that soils are generally anisotropic with some of their properties varying depending on the direction of measurement. In particular, strength anisotropy should be a main concern in relation with the stability assessment of ...

A Statistical‐Process Hybridized Approach to Modeling Permafrost Distribution in a Boreal Wetland Ecosystem, Whatì, NT, Canada

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐resolution mapping of permafrost in ecologically and topographically complex landscapes remains a major challenge. Existing models of permafrost extent often rely on equilibrium assumptions, which can misrepresent conditions in regions where permafrost persists largely due to ecosystem structure.

Regulatory Framework and Public Policies for Sustainability in the Construction Sector

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyzes the role of public policies in promoting socially responsible practices in the construction sector, with a particular focus on their contribution to climate neutrality and the decarbonization of the building stock. European agreements exert increasing pressure to transform the construction sector, reinforcing the transition

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

The Pier Luigi Nervi's concrete structure of Palazzetto dello Sport: Modeling and dynamic characterization

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a numerical and experimental study aimed at the modeling and dynamic characterization of the reinforced concrete structure of the Palazzetto dello Sport in Rome, designed and by Pier Luigi Nervi with Annibale Vitellozzi, and built by Nervi & Bartoli contractors in 1956‐57.

Large‐scale tests of 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete bridge girders

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract An experimental investigation has been carried out as part of the BRIDGE|50 research project, focusing on large‐scale loading tests performed on five 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete (PC) girders. The study aimed at evaluating the structural response of five girders retrieved from a viaduct in the urban area of Turin, Italy, subjected to 4 ...
