Geotechnical Engineering Perspectives: Challenges and Solutions in the Transition to a Post-Lignite Era

open access: yesMaterials Proceedings, 2021
Coal and lignite regions are on the way to reinvent themselves. In this work, three aspects related to the reclamation and exploitation of these mining areas are analyzed, focusing on the role of geotechnical engineering.

Deepening an old, verticalised pit: rock slope instability hazard assessment using a digitally augmented structural database (Flône limestone quarry, Belgium)

open access: yesEuropean Geologist, 2021
We present a rock slope instability hazard study of the Flône pit (Belgium) by means of a deterministic kinematic stability analysis. The specificity of this study resides in the “digital augmentation” of the field mapping structural database (x 5) by ...

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Digital documentation of railway tunnel inspection in Austria

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 3-8, March 2025.
Abstract Infrastructure, especially railway tunnels, require continuous inspection to ensure their safety. Furthermore, the detection of damages at an early stage can improve their service life. These tasks represent a major challenge for those involved and the tunnel down time is a disruption in operation.

Harnessing machine learning and optimization for informed chemical engineering decisions: A styrene reactor analysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This study shows that integrating multiple machine learning models with optimization and decision‐making improves chemical process design, and that a consensus‐based strategy across models provides more robust and reliable operating recommendations than any single model, especially under limited or noisy data conditions.
