The Effect of Drying-Wetting Cycle’s Repetition to the Characteristic of Natural and Stabilization Residual Soils Jawa Timur - Indonesia

, 2017
Indonesia, which located in tropical region, continuously undergoes wetting and drying cycles due to the changeable seasons. An important role in activating the clay minerals on tropical residual soils is the main factor that affects the static and ...

THE EFFECTS OF WATER CONTENT VARIATION ON ADHESION FACTOR OF PILE FOUNDATION IN EXPANSIVE SOIL [PDF]

, 2013
Seasonal change causes variations in soil moisture content. On expansive soil, this condition influences soil moisture content in the active zone, which is approximately in five meters depth.

The static and dynamic characteristic of undisturbed residual soils under drying-wetting cycle's repetition

, 2016
In tropical volcanic countries such as Indonesia, residual soil covers most of the islands; as the weathering process of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks is still actively undergone due to the tropical climate.

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Cracking of silty mudstone subjected to wetting-drying cycles

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Cracking affected by wetting-drying cycles is a major cause of shallow failure of soft rock slopes. Knowledge of rock tensile properties and cracking behaviors helps better assess the stability of soft rock slopes. This study aims to examine the cracking

Attenuation Rate of Unconfined Compressive Strength Due to Drying-Wetting Cycle of a Clayey Soil

, 2019
There are different climatic regions of soil that are often influenced by a lot of drying-wetting cycles due to seasonal variations. Such seasonal disparity in water content is termed as a drying-wetting cycle.

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Slope Crack Propagation Law and Numerical Simulation of Expansive Soil under Wetting–Drying Cycles

Sustainability, 2023
This study investigated the crack propagation law of expansive soil slopes under drying–wetting conditions and the influence of cracks on slopes by conducting a large-scale indoor slope test subjected to drying–wetting cycles. The change in soil moisture

Plasma EV Proteomics Identifies ECM Remodeling and Inflammatory Proteins LUM and C7 as Candidate Biomarkers in FSHD

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most debilitating and common muscular dystrophies. Despite its severity, no approved therapy exists for FSHD patients. However, several therapeutic candidates are currently under development, and some have recently entered clinical trials, marking the need for reliable ...
