Modeling seismic wave propagation and amplification in 1D/2D/3D linear and nonlinear unbounded media

, 2010
To analyze seismic wave propagation in geological structures, it is possible to consider various numerical approaches: the finite difference method, the spectral element method, the boundary element method, the finite element method, the finite volume ...

Current Knowledge on Phytoremediation Potential of Industrial Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) for PFAS and Heavy Metal Contaminated Soils

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT This review synthesizes current research on the phytoremediation potential of industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) for heavy metals, including arsenic, aluminium, mercury, copper, lead, cadmium, nickel, and zinc, as well as per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), commonly referred to as “forever chemicals.” A structured and transparent ...

Liquefaction Assessment Using the CPT and Accounting for Soil Ageing

Aceh International Journal of Science and Technology, 2018
Due to its continuous data recording capability, excellent repeatability and accuracy, relatively low cost and simplicity of operation, the cone penetration test (CPT) offers enhanced liquefaction assessment over its predecessor the standard penetration ...

LIQUEFACTION OF CLAYEY SOILS

Gruntovedenie
The article collects and analyzes modern views on the liquefaction of clay soils. It is demonstrated that clay soils can also liquefy very much like sands when exposed to dynamic loads. The mechanisms of liquefaction for saturated sensitive clays, cohesionless soils, and loesses are described. Finally, the results of laboratory experiments to determine

Reframing anaerobic digestion as a defossilization platform

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Anaerobic digestion (AD) coupled with carbon capture, utilization, and/or storage (CCUS) is a deployable bioenergy platform that supplies renewable energy and bioresources while valorizing biogenic CO2 for integrated carbon management on the pathway to net‐zero.

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1656-1676, April 2026.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

Influence of soil saturation on the free field response of liquefiable soils

Underground Space, 2017
The present paper presents analysis of the influence of the soil saturation on the free -field response of liquefiable soils. Analyses are conducted using a finite element program developed for partially saturated soils subjected to cyclic loading.

Unlocking Green Oxygen's Potential for Planetary Carbon Management

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 5, 13 March 2026.
Water electrolysis generates both H2 and O2, yet industrial focus remains largely restricted to H2‐driven reductions. The parallel use of O2 offers considerable rewards but remains underexplored. Unlocking this dual‐gas potential necessitates robust cross‐sector communication to identify and scale viable industrial use cases.

Modelling strong seismic ground motion: three-dimensional loading path versus wavefield polarization [PDF]

, 2012
Seismic waves due to strong earthquakes propagating in surficial soil layers may both reduce soil stiffness and increase the energy dissipation into the soil.
