Assessing the coastal protection role of seagrass meadows along a barrier beach, southern Romanian coast
(2023-02)
Article
Accés obertThe presence of seagrass along the Romanian coast is currently seen as an important component of the marine ecosystem. Moreover, seagrass meadows play an additional wave energy dissipation role that has also to be considered ... -
Assessment and characterization of subsidence in the Catalan potash basin
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2023-12-13)
Tesi
Accés obert(English) The importance of potash is inevitable to life on the planet earth as it is required by living mechanisms including plants, animals and human beings. In Europe, this vital ore is produced mainly by Germany and ... -
Characterization of wood-laden flows in rivers
(2019-07)
Article
Accés obertInorganic sediment is not the only solid-fraction component of river flows; flows may also carry significant amounts of large organic material (i.e., large wood), but the characteristics of these wood-laden flows (WLF) are ... -
Coupled hydromechanical modelling of cone penetration in layered liquefiable soils
(2024-02)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialSoil layering modifies cone penetration measurements when the cone is close to layer boundaries. Transition zone and thin-layer effects appear, complicating interpretation. To help identify the mechanisms underlying ... -
