Ground movements during diaphragm wall installation in clays
, 1993 PhDDiaphragm walls are being used increasingly in connection with building basements and road improvement schemes, particularly in urban areas. Many of these walls retain overconsolidated clay, and the magnitude of the lateral stresses which will act ...

A novel approach for in situ benthic habitat characterization
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Habitat heterogeneity is a key driver of temporal and spatial variability of subtidal marine benthic biodiversity. However, this makes it a challenging environment in which to measure and quantify the factors driving biodiversity in a consistent manner.

Influence of soft clay on slope stability
, 2014 Access is limited to UniMAP community.Slope stability is a very important on the design of a slope. If this taken lightly by the engineer, perhaps a major disaster will occur that will result in lost lives.

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry, EarlyView.Liquids at silica interfaces experience demixing as a consequence of their respective polarity. The distribution of liquids and their primary relaxation contributions are studied by surface modification with OD and radical moieties, respectively. ABSTRACT NMR relaxation of liquids in the presence of solid interfaces, such as silica gel or porous glass,

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) offers clear advantages for sustainable construction, including reduced density and improved thermal insulation. However, its mechanical and fracture behavior is difficult to characterize due to the heterogeneity and brittle crushing of porous lightweight aggregates.

Oikos, EarlyView.Fruit colour has long fascinated scientists and is widely considered an evolutionary adaptation to attract both avian and mammalian frugivores. While fleshy fruits play a key role in plant–animal interactions by promoting seed dispersal, the functional significance of colour variation, particularly multicoloured displays during ripening, remains poorly

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Amid increasing urbanisation and biodiversity decline, ‘effective stewardship’ of urban green space (UGS) is a complex but critical nature‐based solution for long‐term environmental, social and economic gain. Combining stewardship and sense‐of‐place frameworks with European nature‐based solutions guidance, we investigate which social and ...

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.Sequential blending improved the mechancial properties of PHB/PBAT/cellulose composites as compared to the one‐step batch mixing method. ABSTRACT Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a natural and biodegradable polymer generated by bacteria. While its applications to potentially replace petroleum‐based plastics are severely limited due to its brittleness and ...
