Causes of the Aging Effect of Polyacrylamide Addition in Sandy Loam Soil Under Alternating Drying and Wetting Conditions: Column Infiltration

open access: yesAgronomy
Polyacrylamide (PAM), as a widely used effective soil conditioner, can decrease sandy soil infiltration, but its function may decline significantly in a short time. Previous study results showed that the annual degradation rate of PAM in soil is about 10%

Immunoinflammatory Mechanisms and Biocompatibility of Bioactive Dental Biomaterials: From Fundamental Insights to Clinical Translation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐host dialogue at the implant interface governs biological fate and osseointegration. Surface physicochemical properties of titanium (Ti) dental implants, including microgrooves, nanopatterns, nanotopography, roughness, and wettability, modulate the initial adsorption of proteins and the formation of a dynamic biointerface.

Influence of drying-wetting cycles on the structure and dynamic characteristics of unsaturated clays: an experimental study.

open access: yes
In order to study the influence of the drying-wetting cycles on the subgrade filler structure and dynamic characteristics of existing ballasted track subgrade, a series of mercury intrusion tests, scanning electron microscopy tests, and dynamic triaxial ...

Impact of wetting–drying cycles on swelling behavior of clayey soils modified by silica fume

open access: yes, 2011
Expansive clayey soils contain silicate clay minerals that have the potential for swelling and shrinkage under changing moisture contents. Cyclic wetting drying phenomena can cause progressive deformation of expansive clayey soils, which may affect ...

Adaptable Covalent Organic Framework‐Hydrogel Microneedles for Glucose‐Responsive Isoliquiritigenin Delivery in Diabetic Wound Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a covalent organic framework‐loaded Traditional Chinese Medicine monomer nanodrug delivery system (ISL@bCOF) via boron‐oxygen bonds, a smart response to glucose for delivering AI‐driven isoliquiritigenin (ISL) targeting ZBP1. This dynamic release mechanism, combined with transdermal delivery technology via potent microneedles, can modulate ...

Comparative study on mechanical performance of silty soil and expansive soil below canal structures in cold regions

open access: yesHeliyon
Silty soil was widely used as filling soil materials for the replacement of expansive soil in cold regions. This paper presents a straightforward approach for the effects of wetting-drying-freezing-thawing cycles on mechanical behaviors of silty soil and

Modeling of the swelling–shrinkage behavior of expansive clays during wetting–drying cycles

open access: yes, 2019
International audienceThis paper presents a constitutive model for simulating the swelling–shrinkage volume change of expansive soils during wetting–drying cycles. Based on the concept of the critical swelling–shrinkage state proposed by Zhao et al. [21],

Numerical modeling of volumetric behavior of unsaturated expansive soil under wetting and drying cycles [PDF]

open access: yes
peer reviewedExpansive soils undergo volumetric changes due to moisture variations as a result of soil-atmosphere interaction. In this study, the moisture-induced volumetric changes in unsaturated expansive soil under wetting-drying cycles were modeled ...

Microsphere‐Templated Conductive Syntactic Foams for Recyclable and Additively Manufactured Soft Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a microsphere‐templated strategy to fabricate reprocessable PEDOT:PSS syntactic foams with tunable porosity, stable conductivity, and 3D printability. In situ PEDOT:PSS coatings create a conductive network that maintains electrical performance at high void fractions.
