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.

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.

GruntovedenieThe 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

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation
Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 1126-1152, June 2026.Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...

Evaluation of soil liquefaction from surface analysis [PDF]
, 2015 In this paper we describe how some techniques for estimating shallow shear wave velocity profilesobtainedfrommeasurementsofambient vibrations and from artificially generated waves can be used to assess sand liquefaction potential.

Creating Flood Disasters: Environmental Memory and Adaptation in Aotearoa New Zealand
Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.This article explores three questions. First, why does New Zealand have widespread flooding hazards? Second, why are these persistent, with little seemingly learned from the memory of earlier events? And third, beyond reiterating conventional solutions, what examples of alternatives or adaptations are being developed in different places?

Localized fluidization in granular materials: Theoretical and numerical study
, 2016 We present analytical and numerical results on localized fluidization within a granular layer subjected to a local injection of fluid. As the injection rate increases the three different regimes previously reported in the literature are recovered ...
