Frost heave in freezing soils: a quasi-static model for ice lens growth (2018)
Journal Article
Ji, Y., Zhou, G., Zhou, Y., & Vandeginste, V. (2019). Frost heave in freezing soils: a quasi-static model for ice lens growth. Cold Regions Science and Technology, 158, 10-17. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coldregions.2018.11.003

Frost heave can have a very destructive impact on infrastructure in permafrost regions. The complexity of nanoscale ice-mineral interactions and their relation to the macroscale frost heave phenomenon make ice lens growth modeling an interesting but...

Ground-based hyperspectral imaging as a tool to identify different carbonate phases in natural cliffs (2018)
Journal Article
Beckert, J., Vandeginste, V., McKean, T. J., Alroichdi, A., & John, C. M. (in press). Ground-based hyperspectral imaging as a tool to identify different carbonate phases in natural cliffs. International Journal of Remote Sensing, 39(12), https://doi.org/10.1080/01431161.2018.1452068

Recent research has shown hyperspectral imaging to be a powerful tool to distinguish carbonate phases with slight compositional differences on quarry cliff faces. The traditional remote sensing set5up uses an optimal short distance between the hypers...

Drones in carbonate geology: opportunities and challenges, and application in diagenetic dolomite geobody mapping (2018)
Journal Article
Madjid, M., Vandeginste, V., Hampson, G., Jordan, C., & Booth, A. (2018). Drones in carbonate geology: opportunities and challenges, and application in diagenetic dolomite geobody mapping. Marine and Petroleum Geology, 91, 723-734. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2018.02.002

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones have become widely available for use in a broad range of disciplines. Despite the decreased cost and technological developments of platforms, sensors and software, the use of drones in carbonate geology has y...
