Geomechanical study of the Bi-stabilization of clay with sugarcane molasses and coconut fiber for sustainable construction by Boukaré Ouédraogo, Inoussa Tougri, Hassime Guengané, Kalifa Palm, Dieudonné Joseph Bathiebo

“…The geotechnical properties were determined through sieve analysis, Proctor tests, and Atterberg limit methods, while the mechanical properties were measured using a hydraulic press. The results showed that cane molasses reduced plasticity, enhanced soil cohesion, and increased dry density with molasses content. …”

Eichhornia crassipes Efficacy in Secondary Wastewater Treatment in the Western Highlands of Cameroon by Amandine Elodie Manekeu Tanetsa, Martin Lekeufack, Marcelle Léonce Edzigui Tsimi, Gabriel Nicodème Tsetagho, Raoul Carmel Longniang, Théophile Fonkou

“…Each lagoon system was supplied with primary-treated domestic wastewater from the wastewater treatment plant of the University of Dschang, Cameroon, at a hydraulic loading rate of 1.13 m3/day. Monthly wastewater samples were collected from the inflow and outflow of each lagoon for physicochemical and bacteriological analyses, and plant growth was assessed biweekly for six months spanning the dry and rainy seasons. …”

Failure Modes and Fault Morphology by Adam J. Cawood, David A. Ferrill, Kevin J. Smart

“…These geometric properties, in turn, govern a wide range of fault processes and behaviors, such as reactivation potential, fault propagation, and growth, and the hydraulic properties of faults and fault zones. Here, we use field data and close-range digital photogrammetry to characterize, in detail, the surface morphology of three normal faults with cm-scale displacements in mechanically layered carbonates of the Cretaceous Glen Rose Formation at Canyon Lake Gorge, Comal County, Texas. …”
