Mechanical Properties and Microscopic Mechanism of Granite Residual Soil Stabilized with Biopolymers

Applied Sciences
Granite residual soil exhibits a tendency to collapse and disintegrate upon exposure to water, displaying highly unstable mechanical properties. This makes it susceptible to landslides, mudslides, and other geological hazards. In this study, three common

Combining soil macropore flow with formation mechanism to the development of shallow landslide warning threshold in South China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Because of the physical character of soil from granite weathering and the typhoon rains in South China, the model for early warnings of existing shallow landslides cannot be well applied in that area.

Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Multiobjective Simulation–Optimization of Crop Allocation and Water Resources in Canal Command Areas Using Genetic Algorithms

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops an integrated simulation–optimization framework for sustainable crop allocation and water resource management in the Bargarh Canal Command (BCC), eastern India. Efficient irrigation allocation remains a critical challenge due to competing demands, groundwater–surface water interactions and environmental constraints ...

Experimental Study on Mechanical Properties and Micromechanisms of Cement-Improved Granite Residual Soil

Advances in Civil Engineering
To enhance the engineering properties of granite residual soil for subgrade filling, cement is incorporated to improve the soil. Through compaction tests, direct shear tests, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) tests, the influence of adding different

Geochronological reconstruction of the Lateglacial deglaciation in the Arve Valley (Northern French Alps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing and spatial patterns of glaciers retreat in the Northern French Alps during the Lateglacial (19.0–11.7 ka) remain debated, reflecting discrepancies among available chronological data sets. The complex interactions between major glaciers, such as the Rhône and Arve glaciers to the north and the Isère glacier to the south, represent a

Natural Variability of Shear Strength in a Granite Residual Soil from Porto [PDF]

Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2014
The renewal imposed by the Eurocodes regarding the methodologies of safety evaluation requires a statistical analysis of the variability of ground geotechnical parameters. However, the studies published in the reviewed literature do not cover the typical materials from the northeast region of Portugal—residual soils from granite—to which a strong ...

Effect of age class on the survivorship and spatial movement patterns of headstarted Texas horned lizards soft‐released into an urban population

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
When compared to resident lizards of the corresponding age class, juvenile headstarted Texas horned lizards soft‐released into an urban population exhibited more favorable responses to short‐term translocation objectives (i.e., daily movement rates, home range sizes, and survival rates) than did conspecifics headstarted to the adult age class ...

Experimental study on granite-weathered crust landslides with different residual layer thicknesses under heavy rainfall [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
Landslides are frequent in granite areas during rainfall. The hydrological response and deformation damage mechanisms of granite-weathered crust slopes were investigated by physical model tests.

Anaerobic Corrosion Phenomena of Cast Iron and Copper in Artificial Groundwater at Elevated Temperature

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
This study examines corrosion of copper and cast iron as candidate canister materials for high‐level radioactive waste disposal in contact with bentonite suspension. The influence of three electrolyte compositions on corrosion behavior under repository‐relevant conditions is assessed.
