Bayesian Neural Network Prediction and Uncertainty Analysis of Bio‐Cemented Soil Strength

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 1349-1366, 25 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has emerged as a promising ground improvement technique, with MICP‐treated soils exhibiting substantial enhancements in strength. However, experimental results revealed significant variability in strength outcomes of MICP‐treated soils, even under identical treatment conditions and soil ...

Facies analysis provides new insights into event bed deposition in a hadal trench environment

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 441-477, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Hadal trenches preserve exceptional sedimentary archives of past geological events, yet their depositional processes remain poorly constrained. The Japan Trench captures complex earthquake‐triggered event beds that record repeated sediment‐gravity flows that deliver terrigenous and biogenic material into the trench, informing palaeoseismic ...

USE OF SMALL-SCALE LIQUEFACTION FEATURES TO ASSESS PALEOSEISMICITY: AN EXAMPLE FROM THE SALINE RIVER FAULT ZONE, SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS, U.S.A.

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2014
Large-scale liquefaction features (e.g., sand blows, lateral-spread fissure vents) that can be recognized on remote-sensing imagery and photography have been of great utility in developing chronologies of paleo-earthquakes.

Overview geotechnical model tests on dike safety at Deltares [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Three on-going dike safety studies (on: macro stability, piping and flow slides) in the Netherlands make use of geotechnical physical models. A short outline of these projects is presented; the physical models chosen are described and discussed.

The importance of accurate time-integration in the numerical modelling of P-wave propagation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The numerical dissipation characteristics of the Newmark and generalised-α time-integration schemes are investigated for P-wave propagation in a fully saturated level-ground sand deposit, where higher frequencies than those for S-waves are of concern ...

Energy Landscape in Iraq: Current Status, Research Review, and Policy Insights

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 625-678, January 2026.
Renewable energy currently contributes a small fraction to Iraq's electricity mix, with 3.39% from hydropower and 0.059% from solar, while thermal power dominates at 96.6%. Significant untapped potential exists across solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, wave, and blue energy, highlighting opportunities for a low‐carbon, technoeconomically viable energy ...

Cyclic liquefaction behavior of silty sand considering initial static shear effect: a DEM investigation

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
To gain more insights into the microscopic mechanism of the liquefaction behavior, the particle flow program PFC3D is used to simulate the liquefaction process of silty sands under undrained cyclic loading.

Determination of Initial-Shear-Stress Impact on Ramsar-Sand Liquefaction Susceptibility through Monotonic Triaxial Testing

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Liquefaction risk assessment is critical for the safety and economics of structures. As the soil strata of Ramsar area in north Iran is mostly composed of poorly graded clean sand and the ground water table is found at shallow depths, it is highly ...

Cyclic Loading and Fabric Evolution in Sand: A Constitutive Investigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An anisotropic plasticity model is proposed to describe the effect of fabric and fabric evolution on the cyclic behaviour of sand within the framework of anisotropic critical state theory.

Bifenthrin Under Scrutiny: Revisiting Toxicological Evidence Amid Regulatory Gaps

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 61-77, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite growing health concerns, bifenthrin (BF) remains widely used for controlling agricultural and residential pests. However, different perspectives on its toxicological profile and regulatory framework warrant a revisit and update on BF regulation towards a robust risk‐safety assessment.
