Evolution of desiccation cracking behavior of clays under drying-wetting cycles
Soils usually experience multiple drying-wetting cycles in nature, which can have a significant impact on the engineering properties of soils. Laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the effect of drying-wetting cycles on the initiation and ...

Statistical Damage Model of Altered Granite under Dry-Wet Cycles [PDF]
This paper presents a new statistical damage constitutive model using symmetric normal distribution. The broken rock microbody obeyed symmetric normal distribution and the equivalent strain principle in damage mechanics. The uniaxial compression tests of samples subjected to dry-wet cycles were performed.

Oxygen Diffusion Property of Fatigue Damaged Concrete under Drying-wetting Cycle [PDF]
Oxygen diffusion has an important influence on the corrosion process of reinforced concrete structures. In the marine environment, concrete is subject to both fatigue loads and periodic drying-wetting conditions.
