This study investigates the effects and mechanisms of three mineral admixtures—fly ash (FA), silica fume (SF), and metakaolin (MK)—on the fresh, mechanical, and microstructural properties of Yellow River sediment (YRS)-based shotcrete. A...
Steel fibers (STs), polyvinyl alcohol fibers (PVAs), and polyethylene fibers (PEs) were selected to systematically investigate the effects of different fiber types and dosages on the workability (slump and spread) and mechanical properties (compressi...
To address the demands for resource utilization of Yellow River sediment and the durability requirements of engineering materials in cold regions, this study systematically investigates the mechanisms affecting the frost resistance of slag-Yellow Riv...
Water-sediment regulation Scheme (WSRS) is a crucial artificial control method for water and sediment in the lower reaches of the Yellow River (YR). During this period, the impact of high flow discharge and high sediment concentration on the distribu...
The Huanghe River (Yellow River) is the most sediment laden river system in the world, and many efforts have been conducted to understand modern deltaic evolution in response to anthropological impacts. However, the natural background and its linkage...
Man-made floods from dams are intentional for different purposes, e.g., spreading sediment and helping deltaic development. Less is known about their effects on slack-water deposits (SWDs) in downstream channels. Since the implementation of the Water...
Historically, the Yellow River in China discharges > 1 × 109 ton/yr sediment to the sea, and has formed a large delta in the western Bohai Sea. Its river mouth is characterized by an extremely high suspended sediment concentration (SSC), up...
The Yellow River (YR) covers three climatic zones including arid region, semi-arid region and temperate monsoon region, with frequent appearance of flow intermittence in the Lower Yellow River (LYR) before 1999. Channel migration occurs frequently in...
Abandoned delta lobes worldwide face severe net erosion driven by chronic sediment starvation and intensifying marine hydrodynamic forcing, which poses pervasive threats to nearshore and offshore engineering infrastructure, particularly delta zones w...
The Yellow River (YR) has the highest suspended sediment concentration in the world, with its water and sediment exerting a significant influence on nutrient transport and transformation processes. The periodic regulation of water and sediment by the...
Flooding frequency in the lower Yellow River (YR) exhibited an abrupt increase post-934 CE, causing catastrophic societal disruptions. However, the quantitative relationship between this abrupt increase and the intensification of human activity in th...
Water and sediment fluxes into the sea are the basis for the stability of the ecological pattern of the Yellow River Delta (YRD). As a Ramsar wetland of international importance, the YRD is facing the huge ecological risk of land degradation due to c...
Despite extensive research on sediment provenance in the Bohai Sea (BS), a significant knowledge gap persists concerning long-term provenance evolution, particularly in the western BS since the Middle Pleistocene. This shortcoming limits reconstructi...
Red mud (RM) and Yellow River sediment (YRS) are challenging to handle as waste materials. In this study, RM with geopolymer and heavy metal adsorption characteristics was combined with YRS and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) to develop a...
Freeze–thaw durability of 3D-printed engineered cementitious composites (3DP-ECC) is strongly affected by print-induced interlayer defects and anisotropy, particularly in cold regions. This study investigated Cast-ECC and Z-direction 3DP-ECC in...
The slope lands of the Loess Plateau represent a critical region impacted by soil erosion, which directly contributes to the globally recognized high sediment concentration in the Yellow River. However, the extent to which sloped farmland contributes...
The unmixing of grain-size distribution (GSD) with multivariate statistical analysis provides insight into sediment provenance, transport processes and environment conditions. In this article, we performed hierarchical clustering endmember modeling a...
The extensive distribution of quaternary sediments and the extraction of underground resources in the Yellow River Delta (YRD) have resulted in significant land subsidence, which accelerates relative sea level (RSL) rise and heightens the risk of coa...
Soil erosion is a global environmental problem, and soil conservation is the prevention of soil loss from erosion. The Ten Kongduis (kongdui is the translation of “short-term flood gullies” in Mongolian) are ten tributaries in the upper I...
