  • Enhanced visualization of the flat landscape of the Cambridgeshire Fenlands 
    Pritchard, Oliver G.; Farewell, Timothy S.; Hallett, Stephen H. (Wiley, 2015-09-15)
    The Fenlands of East Anglia, England, represent a subtle landscape, where topographic highs rarely exceed 30 m above sea level. However, the fens represent an almost full sequence of Quaternary deposits which, together ...
  • Forward-looking climatic scenarios of UK clay-related subsidence risk 
    Hallett, Stephen H.; Farewell, Timothy; Pritchard, Oliver G. (Cranfield University, 2015-06-01)
    An award drawing upon the Cranfield University EPSRC-funded Impact Acceleration Account (IAA) was awarded to staff in the University’s School of Energy, Environment and Agrifood (SEEA) (Hallett, Farewell, Pritchard), to ...
  • How the impacts of burst water mains are influenced by soil sand content 
    Farewell, Timothy S.; Jude, Simon; Pritchard, Oliver G. (European Geosciences Union (EGU) / Copernicus Publications, 2018-11-09)
    Society relies on infrastructure, but as infrastructure systems are often collocated and interdependent, they are vulnerable to cascading failures. This study investigated cross-infrastructure and societal impacts of burst ...
  • The influence of soil on the impacts of burst water mains on infrastructure and society: A mixed methods investigation 
    Farewell, Timothy S.; Jude, Simon; Pritchard, Oliver G. (European Geosciences Union (EGU) / Copernicus Publications, 2017-12-12)
    Society relies on infrastructure, but colocation and interdependencies make infrastructure systems vulnerable to cascading failures. This study investigated cross-infrastructure and societal impacts of burst water mains, ...
  • Probabilistic soil moisture projections to assess Great Britain's future clay-related subsidence hazard 
    Pritchard, Oliver G.; Hallett, Stephen H.; Farewell, Timothy S. (Springer, 2015-09-05)
    Clay-related subsidence is Great Britain’s (GB) most damaging soil-related geohazard, costing the economy up to £500 million per annum. Soil-related geohazard models based on mineralogy and potential soil moisture deficit ...
  • Soil geohazard mapping for improved asset management of UK local roads 
    Pritchard, Oliver G.; Hallett, Stephen H.; Farewell, Timothy S. (Copernicus Publications, 2015-05-08)
    Unclassified roads comprise 60% of the road network in the United Kingdom (UK). The resilience of this locally important network is declining. It is considered by the Institution of Civil Engineers to be “at risk” and ...
  • Soil impacts on UK infrastructure: current and future climate 
    Pritchard, Oliver G.; Hallett, Stephen H.; Farewell, Timothy (Institution of Civil Engineers, 2014-08-01)
    This paper undertakes a critical review of the literature concerning mechanisms and impacts of soil-related geohazards to UK infrastructure. The country is predicted to have drier, hotter summers and wetter, warmer winters ...
  • Soil-related geohazard assessment for climate-resilient UK infrastructure 
    Pritchard, Oliver G. (Cranfield University, 2015-11)
    UK (United Kingdom) infrastructure networks are fundamental for maintaining societal and economic wellbeing. With infrastructure assets predominantly founded in the soil layer (< 1.5m below ground level) they are subject ...
