The dissipation and microbial ecotoxicity of tebuconazole and its transformation products in soil under standard laboratory and simulated winter conditions
(2018)Tebuconazole (TBZ) is a widely used triazole fungicide at EU level on cereals and vines. It is relatively persistent in soil where it is transformed to various transformation products (TPs) which might be environmentally ... -
The effect of biochar feedstock, pyrolysis temperature, and application rate on the reduction of ammonia volatilisation from biochar-amended soil
(2018)Ammonia (NH3) volatilisation is one of the most important causes of nitrogen (N) loss in soil-plant systems worldwide. Carbon-based amendments such as biochar have been shown to mitigate NH3 volatilisation in agricultural ... -
The effect of cracking on the response and design of diaphragm walls and adjacent buildings
(2015)The development of the bending moment corresponding to the maximum tensile stress the concrete accommodated (relatively low with reference to the capacity of the wall) produces cracking initiation. Despite the fact that ... -
Effect of irrigation frequency on rose flower production and quality
(2006)A better understanding of the effects of irrigation frequency on flower production and quality of rose plants can help to propose optimal irrigation scheduling. For this purpose, experiments were conducted on a soilless ... -
The effect of nonlinear wave-structure and soil-structure interactions in the design of an offshore structure
(2017)This work highlights the importance of the consideration of nonlinearities in the analysis and design of deep water platforms. The nonlinearities concern both the calculation of the wave loading and the structural analysis ... -
Effect of soil characteristics on shear strength of sands
(2018)The paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation into the influence of (a) mineral composition and angularity of sand grains and (b) fines type and content on the strength parameters of sandy soils tested at ... -
Effect of spatial variability of soil properties on permanent seismic displacements of slopes with uniform load
(2021)The purpose of this study is to investigate the development of permanent displacements of earth slopes, with spatially varying properties and a uniform surface load, subjected to a strong seismic excitation. The uncertainties ... -
Effect of spatial variability of soil properties on the stability and permanent seismic displacements of highway slopes
(2019)The effect of spatial variability of soil properties, slope inclination and excitation characteristics on the development of permanent displacements is investigated using random fields, created by the Local Average Subdivision ... -
Effects of sheep bone biochar on soil quality, maize growth, and fractionation and phytoavailability of Cd and Zn in a mining-contaminated soil
(2021)Biochar prepared from various feedstock materials has been utilized in recent years as a potential stabilizing agent for heavy metals in smelter-contaminated soils. However, the effectiveness of animal bone-derived biochar ... -
Effects of spatial variability of soil properties and ground motion characteristics on permanent displacements of slopes
(2022)The seismic performance of earth slopes is a problem of great importance in geotechnical earthquake engineering associated with various sources of uncertainty. This research investigates the effects of two important causes ... -
Efficient numerical modeling of liquefaction-induced deformations of soil structures
(2008)A new numerical methodology is presented for the simulation of the non cohesive soil response under small, medium and large cyclic shear strains, with special interest given to liquefaction phenomena. The new methodology ... -
Estimating remobilization of potentially toxic elements in soil and road dust of an industrialized urban environment
(2022)The mobility of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) is of paramount concern in urban settings, particularly those affected by industrial activities. Here, contaminated soils and road dusts of the medium-size, industrialized ... -
Estimation of models for cumulative infiltration of soil using machine learning methods
(2021)Knowledge of cumulative infiltration of soil is necessary for irrigation, surface flow, groundwater recharge and many other hydrological processes. In the present study, the Support Vector Machine (SVM), artificial neural ... -
Experimental Determination of Hydraulic Conductivity at Unsaturated Soil Column
(2016)Hydraulic Conductivity (K) is an important hydraulic parameter as it affects the environment by controlling infiltration, irrigation rate, and consequently the water movement through the ground. In order to determine ... -
Exploring plant diversity through soil DNA in Thai national parks for influencing land reform and agriculture planning
(2021)Background. The severe deforestation, as indicated in national forest data, is a recurring problem in many areas of Northern Thailand, including Doi Suthep-Pui National Park. Agricultural expansion in these areas, is one ... -
Failure analysis of a welded steel pipe at Kullar fault crossing
(2017)The seismic response of a 2200-mm-diameter welded steel pipe at strike slip Kullar fault crossing in Izmit, Kocaeli during 1999 Kocaeli earthquake is investigated. The pipe was crossing the fault-line with an angle of 55° ... -
Failure mechanisms of landfills under dynamic loading
(2008)Seismic stability of above-ground landfills is an issue of extreme engineering interest, and the proper implementation of the corresponding analyses requires dealing with several uncertainties related mainly to the special ... -
Finite element analysis of buried steel pipelines under strike-slip fault displacements
(2011)The present paper investigates the mechanical behavior of buried steel pipelines, crossing active strike-slip tectonic faults. The fault plane is vertical and crosses the pipeline axis at a certain angle. The interacting ... -
Following the route of veterinary antibiotics tiamulin and tilmicosin from livestock farms to agricultural soils
(2022)Veterinary antibiotics (VAs) are not completely metabolized in the animal body. Hence, when animal excretes are used as soil manures, VA residues are dispersed with potential implications for environmental quality and human ... -
