Filtration in cohesive soils: numerical approach

open access: yesComputer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2023
Paper presents a numerical method for solving the initial boundary-value problem for a certain quasilinear parabolic equation describing the low velocity filtration problem. The convergence of the method is proved.

The meaning of effective soil parameters for determining of the bearing capacity of cohesive soils

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2014
The paper presents the analysis of the bearing capacity of cohesive soils, which was calculated based on the PN-EN-1997-1 methodology. This computations take into account the effect of pore water pressure on the soil strength parameters.

Multimodal Soft Surgical Robots Enabled by Eco‐Degradable, Sterilizable Polymers and Transient Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A compostable PGS soft surgical robot with interchangeable modules integrates transient Mo tactile and Si thermal sensors for dual feedback. The device preserves its function after clinical‐grade sterilization, demonstrates stable actuation and cardiac tissue grasping with real‐time in vivo pulsatile monitoring, and biodegrades post‐use with soil‐safe,

Fraction of Pore Pressure and Calculation of Earth Pressure for Saturated Cohesive Soils

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
Earth pressure for saturated cohesive soils is closely related to the effective stress expression. For cohesionless soils, previous research indicated that the fraction of pore pressure (factor η) in the effective stress expression is below unity at high

Hydrated Lime Effects on Geotechnical Properties of Clayey Soil

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2020
Cohesive soils present difficulties in construction projects because it usually contains expansive clay minerals. However, the engineering properties of cohesive soils can be stabilized by using various techniques.

Bioinspired Mechanically Robust Organic–Inorganic Hybridized Bio‐Adhesives With up to 50% Inorganic Components by Bi‐Continuous Phase Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A robust plant protein adhesive was prepared by fabricating a bi‐continuous organic–inorganic hybrid structure. Compared with traditional organic–inorganic hybrid adhesives, the addition amount of inorganic phase is increased from 0.2%–3.0% to 50%, and the strength and toughness are increased by 6 and 121 times, respectively.

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.

Parallel Electrical Integration of Photo Bio Electrochemical Systems (photo‐BESs): Performance Gains and Load Dependency

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.

Mechanical Properties of Soil-cement Composites Made with Cohesive or Non-Cohesive Soil

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
The paper discusses results of mechanical and technological tests of soil-cement composites made with cohesive or non-cohesive soil. The compositions of the soil-cement mixtures analysed differed in terms of their cement paste volume fractions and water-cement ratios.
