Dilatancy relation for overconsolidated clay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A distinct feature of overconsolidated (OC) clays is that their dilatancy behavior is dependent on the degree of overconsolidation. Typically, a heavily OC clay shows volume expansion, whereas a lightly OC clay exhibits volume contraction when subjected ...

Study on permeability coefficient of saturated cohesive soil based on fractal theory

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2019
Because of its extremely low permeability, cohesive soil is often regarded as a very important impermeable material in geotechnical projects. Therefore, further study of the mechanism of cohesive soil infiltration has a very far-reaching significance in ...

Additive and Partially Dominant Effects from Genomic Variation Contribute to Rice Heterosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Additive and partially dominant effects, namely at mid‐parent levels or values between mid‐parent and parental levels, respectively, are the predominant inheritance patterns of heterosis‐associated molecules. These two genetic effects contribute to heterosis of agronomic traits in both rice and maize, as well as biomass heterosis in Arabidopsis ...

Guidelines for the Use of Synthetic Fluid Dust Control Palliatives on Unpaved Roads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The amount of small soil particles, dust, lost from typical unpaved roads to fugitive dust is staggering. A 1 km stretch of unpaved road can contribute over 2400 kg of dust to the atmosphere (4.2 ton/mile) in a typical 3-month summer season.

Programming Next‐Generation Synthetic Biosensors by Genetic Circuit Design

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Synthetic biology enables genetic circuit‐based biosensing to detect diverse targets, process signals, and transduce them into readable outputs or intracellular regulatory activities. However, field deployment and real‐world application of such synthetic biosensors face considerable challenges in sensitivity, specificity, speed, stability, and ...
