Urban expansion, road building and loss of countryside - a non-linear relationship (2020)
Journal Article

This study conducted a secondary analysis of data from a previous study of the geographical distribution of ‘undisturbed’ countryside in England. It juxtaposes the proportion of undisturbed countryside in each local authority area against the total...

Experimental testing of variable stiffness bracing system for reinforced concrete structure under dynamic load (2020)
Journal Article

This study reports the development of variable stiffness bracing (VSB) system as the lateral resisting element for RC-framed structures subjected to dynamic load. This device can enhance the lateral stability of structures against dynamic loading. Th...

Reweaving urban water-community relations: Creative, participatory river “daylighting” and local hydrocitizenship (2020)
Journal Article

Framed by questions about ‘hydrocitizenship’ in the 21st century, this co-produced, interdisciplinary arts and humanities-centred research explores the (re)weaving of local knowledges, experiences, perceptions and values of water and place through th...

Rethinking water security: How does flooding fit into the concept? (2020)
Journal Article

Since first introduced in 2000, ‘water security’ has grown into a vibrant research area, with the majority of studies examining water supply security. Although protection to water-related hazards is recognised as a dimension in water security, only a... Read More about Rethinking water security: How does flooding fit into the concept?.

Performance of clay stabilized by cementitious materials and inclusion of zeolite/alkaline metals-based additive (2020)
Journal Article

RoadCem (RC) is a by-product additive produced based on nanotechnology and comprises of synthetic zeolites and alkali earth metals as some of its components. The geotechnical properties of a soil stabilized by adding RC to partly replaced cementitiou...

Urban form and human behavior in context of livable cities and their public realms (2020)
Journal Article

In what ways are cities things that happen to us, and in what ways are cities things we do together, with more or less art and purpose? How do we understand both the geometries of cities and the ways that form might be connected-or not-to their socia...

Comparative analysis of hybridized solutions to water resources management in Burkina Faso, India and Peru (2020)
Journal Article

Hybridization of ‘green’ and engineered infrastructure, informed by protecting or restoring catchment processes, can resolve interconnected demands on catchment ecosystems, potentially also reversing historic degradation of socio-ecological systems....

Estimation of groundwater recharge in savannah aquifers along a precipitation gradient using chloride mass balance method and environmental isotopes, Namibia (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd The quantification of groundwater resources is essential especially in water scarce countries like Namibia. The chloride mass balance (CMB) method and isotopic composition were used in determining groundwater recharge along a prec...

Bridges over the Nile: Transportation corridors transformed into public spaces (2020)
Journal Article

Cairo is a congested city with high rate of urbanization and very limited public space. Cairo has one of the lowest rates of parkland per capita of any major city. Moreover, the banks of the Nile, formerly alive with activities such as washing, fishi... Read More about Bridges over the Nile: Transportation corridors transformed into public spaces.
