    • Assessing the Effects of Climate Change on Compound Flooding in Coastal River Areas 

      Bermúdez, María; Farfán-Durán, Juan F.; Willems, Patrick; Cea, Luis (AGU Journals, 2021)
      [Abstract] Flood assessment in coastal river areas is subject to complex dependencies and interactions between flood drivers. In addition, coastal areas are especially vulnerable to climate change, and thus its effects ...
    • Assessment of the Durability Dynamics of High-Performance Concrete Blended With a Fibrous Rice Husk Ash 

      Nduka, David; Olawuyi, Babatunde James; Fagbenle, Olabosipo; González-Fonteboa, Belén (MDPI, 2022)
      [Abstract] The present study examines the durability properties of Class 1 (50–75 MPa) high-performance concrete (HPC) blended with rice husk ash (RHA) as a partial replacement of CEM II B-L, 42.5 N. Six HPC mixes were ...
    • Anisotropic deformability and strength of slate from NW-Spain 

      Alejano, Leandro R.; González Fernández, Manuel Alejandro; Estévez-Ventosa, Xian; Song, Fei; Delgado Martín, Jordi; Muñoz-Ibáñez, Andrea; González-Molano, Nubia; Alvarellos-Iglesias, José (Elsevier, 2021)
      [Abstract:] Slates are metamorphic rocks characterized by the pervasive occurrence of cleavage or foliation producing a highly anisotropic mechanical behavior characterized by fissility. Deformability and strength of these ...
    • Photoelastic Stress Analysis of Mode I Fracture Toughness Tests Using PMMA Samples 

      Muñoz-Ibáñez, Andrea; Herbón-Penabad, Miguel; Delgado Martín, Jordi (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2021)
      [Abstract] Rocks are usually inhomogeneous and anisotropic materials. The presence of foliation planes, grain boundaries or even microcracks may alter the stress distribution. In order to identify whether unusual behaviours ...
    • Hydrofracturing tests on granite samples using a true triaxial device equipped with acoustic emission sensors 

      Herbón-Penabad, Miguel; Muñoz-Ibáñez, Andrea; Delgado Martín, Jordi; González-Molano, Nubia; Alvarellos-Iglesias, José; Canal, Jacobo (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2021)
      [Abstract:] We present a series of tests performed on granite samples using a true triaxial device designed and built at the Rock Mechanics Laboratory (University of A Coruña). The experiments were performed using cubic ...
