Finite element modelling of unsaturated soils using a modified version of the Barcelona Basic Model [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 In this paper, unsaturated soil behaviour is numerically simulated using a modified version of the Barcelona Basic Model. The model has been implemented as a User-Defined Soil Model (UDSM) in the finite element code PLAXIS.

Developments in 3D Visualisation of the Rail Tunnel Subsurface for Inspection and Monitoring
Applied Sciences, 2022 Railway Tunnel SubSurface Inspection (RTSSI) is essential for targeted structural maintenance. ‘Effective’ detection, localisation and characterisation of fully concealed features (i.e., assets, defects) is the primary challenge faced by RTSSI engineers,

Parapatric speciation of Meiothermus in serpentinite-hosted aquifers in Oman
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 The factors that control the distribution and evolution of microbial life in subsurface environments remain enigmatic due to challenges associated with sampling fluids from discrete depth intervals via boreholes while avoiding mixing of fluids.
