Soil–Water–Structure Interactions
Geotechnics, 2023 Interactions between soil, fluids (e.g., water), and structures are intrinsic to most geotechnical problems. However, these can be extremely complex and further understanding is needed in this field. Soil–water–structure interactions can be studied on many different scales (micro to macro) and perspectives (experimental, numerical, and theoretical). In

Géotechnique, 2022 Earthquake-induced soil liquefaction can generate excessive damage to building structures due to significant reduction in soil effective stress. With increasing urbanisation and population growth, the performance of closely spaced buildings, such as those in towns and cities, is of greater concern where structure–soil–structure interaction (SSSI) may ...

Mycorrhizas and soil structure [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2006 SummaryIn addition to their well‐recognized roles in plant nutrition and communities, mycorrhizas can influence the key ecosystem process of soil aggregation. Here we review the contribution of mycorrhizas, mostly focused on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), to soil structure at various hierarchical levels: plant community; individual root; and the ...
