Air Permeability of the Litter Layer in Broadleaf Forests

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
Fuel on the ground, such as leaves, twigs and decomposing matter, accumulate over time and account for a large percentage of the total fuel load in forests. In fire events, material on the ground is often referred to as a fuel bed.

Instability of the salinity profile during the evaporation of saline groundwater [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We investigate salt transport during the evaporation and upflow of saline groundwater. We describe a model in which a sharp evaporation-precipitation front separates regions of soil saturated with an air-vapour mixture and with saline water.

On the measurement of air permeability.

open access: yesNetherlands Journal of Agricultural Science, 1987
Air pemeability values are used to assess the state of aeration, soil structural stability, structural degradation and compaction. A simple experimental procedure, using a constant-speed motor, a syringe and simple pressure sensors, is discussed. At steady-state air flow throught a soil sample the air permeability coefficient can be derived directly ...

Mesoscopic magnetism in dielectric photonic crystal meta materials: topology and inhomogeneous broadening [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We consider meta materials made from a two-dimensional dielectric rod-type photonic crystal. The magnetic response is studied within the recently developed homogenization theory and we in particular study the effects of topology and inhomogeneous ...
