Earthquakes are detrimental phenomena that can result in significant loss of lives and infrastructures. During earthquakes, shallow foundations can suffer considerable settlement, tilting, and sliding resulting in foundation failure. One of the promoting techniques that can enhance soil performance is soil reinforcement using geogrid. Until recentl...

Rapid population growth-induced urbanization, industrialization, deforestation, settlement expansion and habitat destruction are significant drivers of LU/LC change at global scale. The uncontrolled LU/LC change, specifically in developing countries like Ethiopia, poses significant environmental threats to water quality, biodiversity, and ecosystem...

Shear wave velocity (Vs) profiles were obtained using two techniques at a dense sand site in Blessington near Dublin, Ireland. It was shown that both the multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) and seismic CPT (SCPTU) techniques provided reliable data. Use was made of a novel approach involving a Monte Carlo inversion of the MASW output to as...

In regions where the soil conditions exhibit softness, engineering endeavours frequently encounter obstacles such as significant settlement and restricted load-bearing capability of shallow foundations. In order to address these challenges and to have the safety of infrastructure, it is vital to utilize techniques for improving the ground. The emer...

Phytoplankton cells are now recognized as dynamic entities rather than aspassive and isolated particles because they can actively modulate impacts ofselection factors (nutrients, light, turbidity, and mixing) through a wide rangeof adaptations. Cell shape and/or chain length modulation is one of theseprocesses but has predominantly been studied as ...

Progress in jet grouting technology has been focused on the cutting-edge observer of jets, which aims to generate large columns of jet grouting and increase the activity of construction sites. Since jet grouting techniques vary from conventional grouting methods to modern techniques, they can be used in a variety of soil types and their application...

Previous studies of Magdalenian 14C dates (ca. 19.5-13.5 cal. ka BP) in the western Aquitaine basin have found a disparity in continuity of occupation between the northern part of this western basin (Gironde) and the southern part (western Pyrenees), with a lack of occupation in the northern part ca. 17.5-15.5 cal. ka BP (corresponding to the Late ...

The fragility curve expresses the probability that an asset exceeds some serviceability state for a given level of environmental perturbation or other loadings. It is an important component in the quantitative risk analysis and resilience evaluation of infrastructure exposed to natural hazards. Incidences of over-settlement of embankments are incre...
