Soil in relation to sustainable viticulture in the lower Hunter wine-growing area

The lower Hunter valley, centred on Pokolbin, is Australia’s oldest continuous wine-growing area. It produces wines of high distinction and quality. The University of Sydney F more...

A complete solution of the internal erosion problem for granular media

One of the most common mechanisms for the failure of Earth structures is via internal erosion, where fine particles are washed out of the material by the action of water. This proje more...

Subbase degradation: permeability and strength reductions by means of breakage soil mechanics

How exactly should grain crushing be introduced to model permeability and strength reductions? The answer of this question will be the primary objective of this PhD research, which more...
