Investigating the bearing performance of the foundation under the combined effects of flood scouring and soaking

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Bearing capacity degradation of foundations under the impact of the flood is one of the major reasons responsible for the collapse and damage to the rural buildings, posing a serious threat to the local village societies. Based on a case study of a rural

A Green Consumer‐Based Approach to Advance Branding Strategies in Experiential Consumption Contexts. Insight From the Cruise Industry

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Growing environmental awareness has intensified demand for sustainability and transparency, especially in cruise tourism, a high‐impact and highly scrutinised service context. This study examines how green consumption values (GCV) shape passengers' perceptions of the credibility of green marketing claims (believability) and, in turn, influence

Local scour at permeable spur dikes with different void size and position

open access: yesFrontiers in Water
Trapezoidal permeable spur dikes are the most widely used structures for bank slope protection and waterway regulation in mountainous river channel projects of the upper Yangtze River, but local scouring damage at the dike head remains the primary cause ...

Efektivitas Krib Untuk Mengurangi Gerusan Di Tikungan Luar Sungai Bengawan Solo

open access: yesJurnal Teknik Hidraulik, 2019
Bengawan Solo River considered as a meander river. This condition has potentially triggered local scouring due to high flow velocity at the outer bend of the river.

Acoustic‐driven surface cleaning with millimeter‐sized bubbles at translational resonance

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
Time‐lapse visualization comparing bubble trajectories. The top panel (0 Hz) shows a bubble's linear path under no acoustic forcing, while the bottom panel (50 Hz) demonstrates the oscillatory motion induced by acoustic waves at a resonance mode. This mechanism holds promising potential for applications such as surface cleaning.

Age‐related trends in niche position and specialization in Neotropical vertebrates

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species' niche positions and breadths within a region's environmental space, measured through ecological niche factor analysis (ENFA) as marginality and specialization, can reflect evolutionary constraints related to lineage age. The ‘internal incumbency' hypothesis predicts that older species, due to competitive preemption, occupy more central niche ...

Numerical Simulation of Local Scouring on Pile Groups under Nonlinear Wave Action

open access: yesRenmin Zhujiang
Pile group foundations are widely used in coastal and marine engineering structures, and waves significantly affect the local scouring on pile group foundations. This article used the open-source computational fluid dynamics program REEF3D to establish a

Efficacy of the Combined Use of Bed Sill and Sacrificial Piles to Control Local Scour around Circular Bridge Piers

open access: yesShock and Vibration
In this study, the results are presented and discussed from laboratory test campaigns specifically designed to investigate the behavior of sacrificial piles as a countermeasure against local scouring at a circular bridge pier and clear-water conditions ...

Interplay Between Green Investment and Market Price Premia in Global Shipping

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Existing research emphasises that the driver of green investment is its future profitability. This paper shows that other investors' decisions also influence green investment. We take the example of scrubber installation in shipping, which is optional by regulation but has an established market for trading its underlying asset.
