International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 12, Page 4764-4779, 25 August 2026.ABSTRACT Lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) offers clear advantages for sustainable construction, including reduced density and improved thermal insulation. However, its mechanical and fracture behavior is difficult to characterize due to the heterogeneity and brittle crushing of porous lightweight aggregates.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract During an earthquake a dynamic rupture propagates, causing fractures and permanent damage that modify the mechanical properties of the fault and its surroundings. Reciprocally, the energy dissipated by the mechanical transformation of the fault rock has a direct feedback on the dynamics of the seismic rupture.

DENSITY, TEMPERATURE AND THE UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF POLAR SNOW [PDF]
, 1967 Abstract : The relationships between several empirical and theoretical methods of determining the unconfined compressive strength of polar snow from depth- density and temperature profiles are discussed and graphically compared. Two unconfined compressive strength equations are proposed for snow at -10 degrees C.
