The Influence of Accelerated Carbonation on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Hemp-Fibre-Reinforced Alkali-Activated Fly Ash and Fly Ash/Slag Mortars
(MDPI, 2022)
The physical and mechanical properties of hemp-fibre-reinforced alkali-activated (AA) mortars under accelerated carbonation were evaluated. Two matrices of different physical and chemical properties, i.e., a low Ca-containing ...
Modeling of vertical gravity gradient by normal gravity field and digital terrain models
(Journal of Geodesy, Springer, 2022)
Vertical gravity gradient, as a change of gravity with the change in height, is a significant physical quantity used in many geodetic and geophysical modeling applications. In this research, we used a normal gravity field ...
Incorporating stakeholders’ preferences into a multi-criteria framework for planning large-scale Nature-Based Solutions
(Ambio, 2020)
Hydro-meteorological risks are a growing issue for societies, economies and environments around the world. An effective, sustainable response to such risks and their future uncertainty requires a paradigm shift in our ...
Influence of slab deflection on the out-of-plane capacity of unreinforced masonry partition walls
(Engineering Structures, 2023)
Severe damage of non-structural elements is noticed in previous earthquakes, causing high economic losses and posing a life threat for the people. Masonry partition walls are one of the most commonly used non-structural ...
Refinement of Individual Tree Detection Results Obtained from Airborne Laser Scanning Data for a Mixed Natural Forest
(MDPI, 2022)
Numerous semi- and fully-automatic algorithms have been developed for individual tree detection from airborne laser-scanning data, but different rates of falsely detected treetops also accompany their results. In this ...
Instance-based transfer learning for soil organic carbon estimation
(Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022)
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a vital component for sustainable agricultural
production. This research investigates the transfer learning-based neural
network model to improve classical machine learning estimation of ...
Numerical analysis of the in-plane behaviour of decoupled masonry infilled RC frames
(Engineering Structures, 2022)
Damage of reinforced concrete (RC) frames with masonry infill walls has been observed after many earthquakes. Brittle behaviour of the masonry infills in combination with the ductile behaviour of the RC frames makes infill ...
Streamflow droughts in Sweden: Spatiotemporal patterns emerging from six decades of observations
(Elsevier, 2022)
Study focus:
Although Sweden has historically been a country abundant with water, observed changes in temperature and precipitation patterns during the past century have perturbed regional hydrologic regimes, including ...
Influence of inter-panel connections on vibration response of CLT floors due to pedestrian-induced loading
(Engineering Structures, 2023)
Long-span cross-laminated timber (CLT) floors are typically an assembly of prefabricated CLT panels connected together on the site. The actual connections are commonly neglected in design calculations. Hence, a CLT floor ...
RILEM interlaboratory study on the mechanical properties of asphalt mixtures modified with polyethylene waste
(Elsevier, 2022)
This research aims to determine if the observed improvements using polyethylene (PE) waste in asphalt binder translate into better performance at the asphalt mixture scale in the laboratory environment while overcoming the ...
