Reversible and irreversible dimensional changes of heat-treated wood during alternate wetting and drying [PDF]
, 2017 Spruce wood specimens were heat-treated in saturated water vapor (steaming) and in the absence of moisture (dry heating) at 120–180 °C, and their wet volumes were measured during alternate wetting and drying cycles.

Impact of Wetting–Drying Cycles on the Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of Wood Waste–Gypsum Composites [PDF]
, 2019 Large amounts of wood waste are generated each year in the world. In an attempt to identify a good recovery option for those residues, wood waste from construction and demolition works were used as raw materials in gypsum plasters.

Effects of Sodium Sulfate Attack on Concrete Incorporated with Drying‐Wetting Cycles [PDF]
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 It has been widely observed that sulfate attack can damage the durability of concrete. This research investigated the mass loss and damage degree of concrete under sodium sulfate attack incorporated with drying‐wetting cycles. The impact factors, including water‐binder ratio, solution concentration of sodium sulfate, fly ash content, curing time, and ...
