Additional information

Awarded the Geometrics Scholarship award for best research project in the field of applied geophysics, at the 25th Symposium on the Application of Geophysics to Engineering & Environmental Problems in Tucson, Arizona, 2012. The chairman said the technique is "completely innovative and constitutes a milestone in the assessment of the 3D cracking of clay". This research was funded by AXA and FP7 and a UK local authority. Results attracted knowledge exchange funding with two further local authorities to detect desiccation cracking in embankments. The paper was among the 10 most referenced papers in 2012 in the Journal of Applied Geophysics.
