The Dynamic Impact of the Energy Transition on Food Security in Developing Countries

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the context of persistent food insecurity and the global push for the transition toward clean energy in developing countries, understanding the association between clean energy access and food affordability is increasingly important to inform multisectoral policy interventions. Against this background, this study explores the dynamic impact

Ground compaction due to vibrodriving of piles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Civil engineering construction frequently requires the use of piles to carry structural loads to stronger ground strata or to control lateral ground movements. A variety of techniques are available to install piles into the ground. Of central interest to

Post‐earthquake field assessment and damage correlation of elevated reinforced concrete water tanks in Kahramanmaras/Elbistan, Türkiye

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates the seismic performance of elevated reinforced concrete (RC) water tanks in the Elbistan region following the February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaras–Elbistan earthquakes. Field investigations, visual damage surveys, non‐destructive testing (ultrasonic pulse velocity—UPV), concrete compressive strength measurements, peak ground ...

Geohazard of soil liquefaction

open access: yes, 2023
Likvefakcijom smatramo pojavu pri kojoj tla koja su kruta i čvrsta na mali vremenski period gube čvrstoću prilikom potresa. Pojava likvefakcije tla je jedan od problema vodom zasićenih tla i područja na kojima su potresi učestaliji.

Simulation of the Potential Liquification of Puger Sand Soil on a Small Scale in the Laboratory

open access: yesRekayasa Sipil
Puger is a nearshore area in the Jember district. On the Indonesian liquefaction zone atlas map, Puger is a high liquefaction zone. Liquefaction can occur when water-saturated soil loses its strength and behaves like a liquid due to seismic vibrations ...

Toward Silica‐Free Compliance: A Low‐Viscosity Sample Pretreatment Methodology for Crystalline Quartz Quantification in Viscous Pastes

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crystalline quartz, the most common crystalline silica polymorph, is widely found in industrial products. It is of high regulatory relevance, because its fine fraction, a form of respirable crystalline silica, is classified as an occupational carcinogen, with product‐content thresholds (e.g., 0.1% (w/w) in the European Union) and stringent ...

REPRODUCING OPERATIONAL LANDSCAPES: The Rock Mining for Indonesia's New Capital City

open access: yesInternational 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 ...

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.
