The Mechanical Behavior and Constitutive Model Study of Coarse-Grained Soil under Cyclic Loading–Unloading in Large-Scale Plane Strain Conditions

To address loading and unloading issues in civil and hydraulic engineering projects that employ coarse-grained soil as fill material under plane strain conditions during construction and operation, cyclic loading–unloading large-scale plane strain ...

Spatiotemporal mapping the usable space of free‐roaming equids across the western United States

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Identification of the inter‐decadal (2010‐2011) enhancement‐degradation gradients in the usable space for wild equid Herd Management Areas in the Great Basin, USA. Abstract Management of feral equids in the American West is hindered by the lack of a formal habitat map and monitoring system.

Ectomycorrhizal community composition and extramatrical hyphal proportion predict soil carbon stocks at the landscape scale

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While fungal composition has been linked to soil carbon at global scales, these patterns are often difficult to disentangle from broad climatic gradients and species range limits. To address this constraint, we tested which aspects of ectomycorrhizal community structure

Study on strength characteristics of coarse-grained soil considering influence of mixing uniformity

In the existing research, coarse-grained soil is generally regarded as a homogeneous binary mixture, and the influence of of mixing uniformity between coarse and fine particles on its strength characteristics are ignored. Firstly, a quantitative index(Me)

Toasting With Strangers? Export Spillovers From Chinese Winery Acquisitions in the Bordeaux Vineyards

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Foreign entrants may threaten and, at the same time, present local companies with opportunities for favourable spillovers. Building on the awareness‐motivation‐capability framework, this paper aims to provide empirical evidence for a positive co‐location or spatial proximity effect of foreign presence on local peer companies’ exports.

‘From the Fields Into the Bars’: The Story of Israel's First Transgender Novel, The Cut (1977)

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1977, an Israeli transgender woman, Judy Spotheim, published an autobiographical novel entitled The Cut. It describes the emergence of a trans community in the commercial‐sex areas of Tel Aviv‐Jaffa, hoping to humanise trans women (coccinelles). This article is the first to study the novel and present a biography of Spotheim.

Shear Strength of the Volcanic Coarse-Grained Soil

Shear Strength of the Volcanic Coarse-Grained Soil
Japan is awarded with a total of about 144 volcanos distributed over the whole country from the south to the north. In Kyushu Island there are three main volcanos, namely Unzen, Sakurajima and Aso. The eruption of these volcanos has created the need to utilize these huge amounts of debris flow deposits as a construction material.

Mechanical behavior of heterogeneous coarse-grained soils with matrix

, 2020
Les sols grossiers à matrice, matériaux contenant des grains allant du micromètre à plusieurs dizaines de centimètres, sont fréquemment utilisés dans divers projets géotechniques tels que les digues et les remblais. La détermination de la résistance au cisaillement de ces sols dans les appareils standards de laboratoire est difficile en raison de la ...
