Do Antidune Trains Undergo Morphological Changes When These Bedforms Migrate Upstream?

Christophe Ancey, Ivan Pascal

Upstream migrating antidunes develop in streams under supercritical flow conditions. These bedforms are often organised in trains (i.e. sequences of well-developed antidunes). In shallow flows over coarse sediments, the dynamics of a single antidune can be ...

Experimental Study on Bedload Transport and Bedforms: Behaviour and Interplay in Steep Turbulent Streams

Ivan Pascal

In mountain regions, steep streams play an important role in water and sediment connectivity. In these highly dynamic systems, water flow features, sediment fluxes and stream morphologies are tightly interlinked over a broad range of temporal and spatial s ...

Reply to Comment by Jennings et al. on "Investigating Earth's Formation History Through Copper and Sulfur Metal-Silicate Partitioning During Core-Mantle Differentiation"

James Badro

Recognizing existing materials that can act as proxies for Earth's building blocks, and understanding the accretionary pathway taken during Earth's growth, persist as outstanding issues in need of resolution. In Mahan, Siebert, Blanchard, Badro, et al. (20 ...

Pre-dismantling THM modelling of the FEBEX in situ experiment

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Yafei Qiao

FEBEX (Full-scale Engineered Barrier Experiment in Crystalline Host Rock) is a research and demonstration project that was initiated by ENRESA (Spain). The aim of the project is to study the behaviour of near-field components in a repository for high-level ...

NAGRA Project Order 15’228 EBS – Task Force: Homogenization Analysis of Bentonite & Gas Transport in Bentonite

Lyesse Laloui, Aldo Madaschi

The Task 7 of the EBS task force is devoted to the modelling of gas transport phenomena in bentonite. This report describes the second phase of Task 7 that concerns the finite element modelling of some specific tests performed on granular bentonite to asse ...

Effect of treatment on the microstructural characteristics of bio-improved sand

Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis

Bio-chemical processes have recently become the core of several studies in the geoengineering field, where the emphasis is placed on new and emerging applications. Microbially Induced Calcite Precipitation has been introduced as an alternative cementation ...

Unique large diamonds in a ureilite from Almahata Sitta 2008 TC3 asteroid

Philippe Gillet

The Almahata Sitta MS-170 ureilite (a piece of a breccia originating from the asteroid, 2008 TC3) consists mainly of olivine, with many diamond and graphite grains existing between the olivine grains. The occurrences of the diamonds are unique; i.e., (i) s ...

Shot-clay MX-80 bentonite: an assessment of the hydro-mechanical behaviour

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Ali Seiphoori

This study presents the results of an experimental study conducted to characterise the hydro-mechanical behaviour of shot-clay MX-80 bentonite. In the shot-clay process, granular bentonite was mixed continuously with water and shot on the walls of a tunnel ...

Early warning thresholds for partially saturated slopes in volcanic ashes

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, John Eichenberger

Rainfall-induced landslides in steep soil slopes of volcanic origin are a major threat to human lives and infrastructure. In the context of constructing early warning systems in regions where extensive data on landslide occurrences and associated rainfall ...

Four-dimensional distribution of the 2010 Eyjafjallajokull volcanic cloud over Europe observed by EARLINET

Valentin Simeonov, Frank Rüdiger Wagner, Ivan Videnov Grigorov

The eruption of the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajokull in April-May 2010 represents a "natural experiment" to study the impact of volcanic emissions on a continental scale. For the first time, quantitative data about the presence, altitude, and layering of ...
