Analysation of the Effect of the Contact Properties on Soil’s Penetration Resistance in Discrete Element Simulations

open access: yesActa Technica Jaurinensis, 2019
Cone penetration in-situ tests are commonly used to measure the cone index of the soils. This measurement process can be modelled very well with Discrete Element Method (DEM) if the parameters of the correct contact model are defined properly.

Predicting Rainfall Infiltration Losses: A Rainfall Simulation Study of Land Cover, Slope and Soil Type

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Rainfall infiltration is a key hydrological process influencing agriculture, pollutant transport, and flood modeling. Accurate prediction of rainfall losses, defined as rainfall that does not contribute to surface runoff is critical in rainfall‐runoff models.

What Is a Healthy Soil for Winegrape Production? Grower Perspectives Differ From Soil Health Paradigms

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil health (SH) is linked to sustainable agriculture, yet few studies link SH assessments to specific crop‐relevant outcomes needed. This study integrates grower participation to align SH indicators with relevant outcomes for winegrape production.

Statistical analysis of cone penetration resistance of railway ballast

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Dynamic penetrometer tests are widely used in geotechnical studies for soils characterization but their implementation tends to be difficult. The light penetrometer test is able to give information about a cone resistance useful in the field of ...
