Effect of pore-size distribution on unsaturated shear strength of residual soil from sedimentary Jurong formation by Ong, Weilin.

“…A change in the matric suction in the soil causes a change in water volume in an unsaturated soil, which in turn affects the unsaturated shear strength of the soil. The aim of the project is to investigate the effect of pore-size distribution on unsaturated shear strength of residual soil from Jurong Formation. …”

What Do We Mean When We Write About Ethics, Equity, and Justice in Engineering Design? by Das, Madhurima, Roeder, Gillian, Ostrowski, Anastasia K, Yang, Maria C, Verma, Aditi

“…We conduct a review of three leading scholarly engineering design venues to investigate how, when, and why these terms — “ethics,” “equity,” and “justice,” and variations — appear in the engineering design literature and what scholars mean when they use them. We find that these terms are minimally present within the field’s scholarship and posit that design researchers may be using other terms to refer to their work that is aligned with principles of ethics, equity, and justice. …”
