1. Predicting Spatial and Stratigraphic Quick-clay Distribution in SW Sweden
Sammanfattning : Clay sediments are associated with a wide variety of engineering problems, of which landslides, together with settlement, are the most investigated due to the large associated costs. Quick-clay deposits, which if disturbed can transform into a liquid, pose a serious threat to society in southwestern Sweden and have been involved in several large landslides, sometimes with fatal consequences.

2. Multidisciplinary Near-Surface Investigation of a Quick-Clay Landslide Prone Area in Southwest Sweden
Sammanfattning : Quick-clay landslides are considered one of the most important geohazards in Sweden, Norway, and Canada. The deposits involved are glacial and postglacial clays and silty clays, which are very sensitive to increased stress that may collapse their structure and cause liquefaction. LÄS MER
3. Innovative seismic imaging solutions : From hardrock mineral exploration to quick-clay site characterization
Sammanfattning : Seismic methods are an efficient and powerful tool to explore the subsurface. It principally helps to gain information on the subsurface structure, bedrock topography, and the nature of the host rock. LÄS MER
4. Colloid chemical investigations on quick clay formation
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
5. 2D and 3D Reflection Seismic Studies over Scandinavian Deformation Zones
Sammanfattning : The study of deformation zones is of great geological interest since these zones can separate rocks with different characteristics. The geometry of these structures with depth is important for interpreting the geological history of an area. LÄS MER
