Rammed Earth Construction: A Proposal for a Statistical Quality Control in the Execution Process [PDF]
, 2020 Unlike other common contemporary construction materials such as concrete, mortars, or fired clay bricks, which are widely supported by international standards and regulations, building with rammed earth is barely regulated.

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Mine‐water immersion tests reveal pronounced coal weakening (vs. minor concrete degradation), identifying coal pillars as the stability‐limiting component in composite dams. A coupled FEINN framework quantifies extreme‐pressure stability and ranks multi‐parameter designs via a normalized multi‐indicator scheme, enabling optimized dam configuration for ...

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties
Polymer International, EarlyView.The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

PREDICTION OF UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF ROCKS: A REVIEW PAPER
Jurnal Teknologi, 2015 Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of rocks is a crucial parameter in designing geotechnical structures. Owing to difficulties in obtaining proper samples for UCS test as well as the point that conducting UCS is relatively expensive, the use of indirect methods for UCS estimation has drawn considerable attentions.

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Regulated rivers represent complex hydrological systems where groundwater–surface water interactions are governed by natural conditions and human interventions. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of groundwater–surface water exchanges in the Nechako River, British Columbia (Canada), using numerical simulations.

Effect of Static Soaking under Different Temperatures on the Lime Stabilized Gypseous Soil
Tikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2011 This study concerns with the effect of long-term soaking on the unconfined compressive strength, loss in weight and gypsum dissolution of gypseous soil stabilized with (4%) lime, take into account the following variables: initial water content, water ...

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The previous seismic events indicated the vulnerability of old reinforced concrete (RC) structures against earthquakes due to the absence of seismic detailing and capacity design specifications in such buildings. In this context, beam‐column joints (BCJ) of the existing RC structures built before the 1970s have exhibited poor structural ...
