Exploring rate and temperature effects on residual strength. Review and implications for a landslide case study
(CRC Press, 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessA large landslide immediate to a reservoir, identified in 2006, is the guiding case to discuss its triggering, namely a consequence of fast reservoir drawdown, and its post-failure response. The reactivation of the ... -
Impact of transport distance in life cycle assessments of geosynthetic reinforced soil walls
(CRC Press, 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessA prevailing methodology to evaluate the environmental impact and subsequent sustainability assessment of structures is the life cycle assessment (LCA). In civil engineering, LCA methodologies allow for the quantification ... -
Discrete modelling of stress relaxation in crushable sands based on fracture theory
(CRC Press, 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessStress relaxation of quartz sand is simulated using a recently proposed physically based time-to-fracture discrete element method (DEM) framework. The relaxation of stress on sands under high confining pressure ... -
Artificial Intelligence algorithms for rapeseed fields mapping using Sentinel-1 time series: temporal transfer scenario and ground sampling constraints
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023)
Article
Open AccessThis study aims to enhance rapeseed field detection accuracy using Sentinel-1 (S1) time series data and addressing challenges in collecting ground samples. The proposed solutions include model transfer between years without ... -
Concrete arches and reinforced soil: a sustainable alternative structure for road bridges
(CRC Press, 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessRoad bridges are necessary infrastructures for transportation. As such, they are subject to thorough scrutiny for their environmental, social, and economic impacts. An adequate substantiality assessment applied to bridge ... -
Systemic multi-sectoral and multi-hazard risk assessment in current and future scenarios: the PARATUS-project
(2023)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policySystemic multi-sectoral and multi-hazard risk assessment is an important issue for stakeholders to mitigate the impacts of cascading and compounding events. The EU Horizon Europe “PARATUS”—project deals in one of its work ... -
Hydro-mechanical coupled analysis of gas injection in clay-based materials using different element types
(Elsevier, 2024-06)
Article
Open AccessThis study investigates the impact of various factors on HM-coupled geological media through a multi-category analysis of the so-called Heat and Gas Fracking model (HGFRAC) and the so-called Gas Threshold Pressure Test ... -
Thermo-hydro-mechanical viscoplastic constitutive model for polyester strap reinforcement long-term response
(Elsevier, 2024-11)
Article
Open AccessPolymeric materials have been shown to be rate-dependent materials, that is, their response will vary depending on the conditions to which they are subjected. The present work details the formulation, validation and ... -
A fracture-based discrete model for simulating creep in quartz sands
(2024-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyCreep of granular soils is frequently accompanied by grain breakage. Stress corrosion driven grain breakage offers a micromechanically based explanation for granular creep. This study incorporates that concept into a new ... -
Probabilistic and physically-based modelling of rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility using integrated GIS-FORM algorithm
(Springer, 2024-06)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe susceptibility mapping of rainfall-induced landslides is an effective tool for predicting and locating disaster-prone zones at the regional scale. One of the most important parts of landslide susceptibility models is ... -
Simulating soil reinforcement interaction using CODE_BRIGHT
(2024)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyReinforced soil structures (RSS) involve a compacted soil mass with embedded elements, orthogonal to the main stress direction, which act as load bearing components. The compound nature of RSS requires a proper characterization ... -
Fast physically-based probabilistic modelling of rainfall-induced shallow landslide susceptibility at the regional scale considering geotechnical uncertainties and different hydrological conditions
(Elsevier, 2024-08)
Article
Open AccessThe inherent uncertainty in hydro-geotechnical parameters presents a significant challenge for accurately predicting rainfall-triggered shallow landslides in mountainous regions. In this study, a novel probabilistic framework ...
