Climate Driven Water Table Changes and Their Influence on Liquefaction Response of Integral Bridges
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Integral abutment bridges (IABs) eliminate bearings and joints but transfer seismic demand directly into the surrounding soil, making their response highly sensitive to groundwater conditions and soil–structure interaction. This study presents a 60 g centrifuge testing programme on single‐span IABs designed to isolate the influence of water ...

Effect of silt interlayer configuration on the cyclic resistance of loose sand in direct simple shear [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesLiquefaction is a major source of earthquake-induced ground failure, especially in loose, saturated sandy deposits common in Indonesia. Understanding how layered soils behave under cyclic loading is therefore crucial for developing effective strategies ...

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A major transformation in China's energy mix is underway as the country pursues carbon neutrality by 2060, posing significant structural challenges for Australia as a major exporter of carbon‐intensive resources. This study examines the economic impacts of China's decarbonisation on Australia by applying static and dynamic input–output (IO ...

Anisotropy in the Liquefaction Resistance of Fibre Reinforced Sand
Materials, 2023 Adding discrete fibres to sand has been seen as a feasible technique to improve sand’s strength as well as liquefaction resistance. Considering the anisotropic distribution of fibre orientations, the anisotropy in the liquefaction resistance of the reinforced sand is also introduced using fibres.

Small, EarlyView.This review establishes a mechanism‐guided framework for catalyst design in electrochemical, photocatalytic, and photoelectrochemical ammonia oxidation. By correlating catalyst structure, reaction mechanisms, catalytic performance, and device‐level architectures, it highlights rational engineering strategies and future directions toward efficient ...

Influence of clay mineralogy on undrained cyclic strength of sand with fines
Engineering Science and Technology, an International JournalSoils in natural or reclaimed areas frequently contain a mixture of sand, silt, and clay, rather than consisting solely of clean sand. The influence of a small proportion of fine plastic particles within a sandy matrix on liquefaction resistance still ...

REPRODUCING OPERATIONAL LANDSCAPES: The Rock Mining for Indonesia's New Capital City
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Indonesia's new capital city is designed to become a green and sustainable city. In this article, we examine the (un)sustainability of the process through which the city is coming into being. Using the sociospatial theory of planetary urbanization, we trace the dialectical relationship between the new city and sites beyond it to show how ...

An Experimental Study of Liquefaction of Saturated Sands
Soils and Foundations, 1967 Loose saturated sand was placed in a rigid box, covered with an impervious membrane, and subjected to horizontal vibration while a surcharge was applied on the membrane. The pore water pressure measured at various depths during vibration showed that the process leading to a completely liquefied state consisted of two stages : (1) a period in which the ...

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development aims to eradicate poverty, protect the environment, and promote prosperity through 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Achieving these goals requires a multi‐sectoral approach. Maritime transportation, vital to the global economy, significantly contributes to several SDGs and plays a strategic ...
