   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Julia Ladefoged; [2023-08-18]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Lake ice have been utilized by humans through centuries, as transportation routes and recreational activities to name a few (Sharma et al., 2019). Despite our frequent usage of lake ice there is a lack of extensive knowledge of it. READ MORE

3. 2. Geomechanical testing of non-hardening grout : for determination of flowability and strength properties

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

   Author : Axel Barrdahl; [2022]
   Keywords : Non-hardening; Grout; Embankment dam; Repair; Fall cone; Uniaxial Compressive Strength; UCS; Triaxial;

   Abstract : Due to an increasing amount of aging tendencies in Swedish embankment dams, failures such as internal erosion has become a more common problem. Internal erosion is a phenomenon where certain soil material within the embankment dam is removed, often over a longer period of time. READ MORE

6. 5. Greenhouse gas emissions from compacted peat soil

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

   Author : Antonia Hartmann; [2021]
   Keywords : carbon dioxide; compression index; Peatland agriculture; recompression index; sand addition; soil compaction;

   Abstract : Cultivated peat soils are a main driver for CO2 and N2O emissions, while the gas fluxes are dependent on intrinsic soil properties and land use. Sand addition into peat soils might reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and enhance soil strength, and thus the ability to tolerate soil compaction. READ MORE
