Dynamic behaviour of shredded rubber soil mixtures (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bernal-Sanchez, J., McDougall, J., Barreto Gonzalez, D., Miranda, M., & Marinelli, A. (2018, June). Dynamic behaviour of shredded rubber soil mixtures. Presented at 16th European Conference on Earthquake Engineering, Thessaloniki

Residential buildings in high population density areas are seismically vulnerable to the action of major seismic events. The high cost and technical difficulties related to the use of advanced seismic isolations systems precludes its installation to...

Optical Fiber Sensor Design for Ground Slope Movement Monitoring for Railway Safety Operations (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hook, D., Laing, W., Kerrouche, A., Barreto Gonzalez, D., & Alwis, L. S. (2018). Optical Fiber Sensor Design for Ground Slope Movement Monitoring for Railway Safety Operations. In 2018 IEEE Sensors Proceedings (1-4). https://doi.org/10.1109/ICSENS.2018.8

Scour and slope instability are a major issue in keeping the railway structures safe and operational. Conventional measurement techniques do not allow real-time monitoring of slope movement and/or are time/resource consuming. Novel fiber optic techno...

Journal Article
Jiang, M. D., Yang, Z. X., Barreto, D., & Xie, Y. H. (2018). The influence of particle-size distribution on critical state behavior of spherical and non-spherical particle assemblies. Granular Matter, 20(80), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10035-018-0850-x

This paper presents an investigation into the effects of particle-size distribution on the critical state behavior of granular materials using Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations on both spherical and non-spherical particle assemblies. A series... Read More about The influence of particle-size distribution on critical state behavior of spherical and non-spherical particle assemblies.

New method for rock qualification (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
János, L., Emőke, I., Phong. Q, T., Miklós, G., László, K., István, T., …Guida, G. (2018). New method for rock qualification. In Mérnökgeológia-Kőzetmechanika 2018 (263-274)

A new method was elaborated to characterize the breakage properties of rocks. A crushing test was suggested and parallel tests were performed on sand-pairs with different parent rocks, using identical initial gradings. The data were analyse... Read More about New method for rock qualification.
