Effects of Paleosol on the Collapsibility of Loess Sites under Immersion Test Conditions

open access: yes
The existence of multiple layers of red paleosol within loess strata presents a unique challenge due to its high hardness, which resists settlement deformation upon exposure to water. This attribute significantly influences the subsidence measurements of

Micro-Structure Study on Collapsibility Loess with SEM Method

open access: yes, 2011
To study the micro-structure of collapsibility loess, the triaxial shear test under pressure of 10MPa to 100MPa and consolidation test under 1000kPa, 2000kPa and 4000kPa were respectively used on collapsibility loess here to imitate the working condition

Micro-mechanisms, theoretical models, and evaluation techniques of loess collapsibility

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi
Loess, widely distributed across northwestern China, is a Quaternary aeolian deposit characterized by its pronounced collapsibility. Owing to its naturally metastable structure, loess presents high strength under low-moisture conditions but may ...

The ANT‐Mobilities Framework: Transectionality and a Post‐Materialist Historical Sociology

open access: yesSociology Lens, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 498-506, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The ANT‐Mobilities framework synthesizes Actor‐Network Theory, the mobilities paradigm, and historical sociology to analyze complex social transformations. This paper develops the framework through empirical engagement with post‐disaster rehabilitation networks following the 2005 Pakistan earthquake, demonstrating how crisis contexts generate ...

Relationship between the permeability and collapsibility of sandy loess and its microscopic mechanism

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi
Permeability and collapsibility are important indicators governing the engineering behavior of loess. Analyzing the relationship between collapsibility and permeability from a microscopic perspective is essential for understanding loess engineering ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 3944-3967, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Collapsibility in Infinite-Domain Quantified Constraint Satisfaction

open access: yes, 2006
In this article, we study the quantified constraint satisfaction problem (QCSP) over infinite domains. We develop a technique called collapsibility that allows one to give strong complexity upper bounds on the QCSP.

Microstructure evolution of collapsibility of thick loess treated with DDC piles: an in-situ experimental study

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
Downhole Dynamic Compaction (DDC) piles are the most widely used technique for the mitigation of loess foundation collapsibility. While previous studies have extensively verified their macro-mechanical improvement performance, the understanding of the ...
