Anisotropic deformability and strength of slate from NW-Spain
(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 ...
An UAV and Satellite Multispectral Data Approach to Monitor Water Quality in Small Reservoirs
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] A multi-sensor and multi-scale monitoring tool for the spatially explicit and periodic monitoring of eutrophication in a small drinking water reservoir is presented. The tool was built with freely available ...
Size effects on the tensile strength and fracture toughness of granitic rock in different tests
(Elsevier, 2023)
[Abstract:] This study investigates the tensile failure mechanisms in granitic rock samples at different scales by means of different types of tests. To do that, we have selected a granitic rock type and obtained samples ...
Plastic Debris in Lakes and Reservoirs
(Springer Nature, 2023)
[Abstract] Plastic debris is thought to be widespread in freshwater ecosystems globally1. However, a lack of comprehensive and comparable data makes rigorous assessment of its distribution challenging2,3. Here we present ...
Size Effect and Other Effects on Mode I Fracture Toughness Using Two Testing Methods
(Elsevier, 2021)
[Abstract] Mode I fracture toughness (KIC) is an intrinsic material property that quantifies its resistance to tensile fracture propagation. The International Society for Rock Mechanics has endorsed four methods to determine ...
Hydrostatic, strike-slip and normal stress true triaxial hydrofracturing testing of Blanco Mera Granite: breakdown pressure and tensile strength assessment
(Springer, 2023)
[Abstract:] We have designed and built a versatile testing device to perform hydraulic fracturing experiments under true triaxial conditions. The device, based on a stiff biaxial frame that can be installed in a servocontrolled ...
Analysis of the reduction processes at the bottom of Lake Meirama: a singular case of lake formation
(Springer, 2023)
[Abstract:] The formation of natural lakes is a process that takes place over thousands of years, although the volumetric formation depends on hydrological and climatological phenomena, reaching a stationary hydraulic ...
A European Multi Lake Survey dataset of environmental variables, phytoplankton pigments and cyanotoxins
(Springer Nature, 2018)
[Abstract:] Under ongoing climate change and increasing anthropogenic activity, which continuously challenge ecosystem resilience, an in-depth understanding of ecological processes is urgently needed. Lakes, as providers ...
