Permeability and Microstructure of a Saline Intact Loess after Dry‐Wet Cycles [PDF]
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 Influenced by both dry‐wet cycles and salt weathering, the loess will exhibit significant changes in microstructure and permeability, which threatens the stability of loess slopes. Triaxial permeability tests and industrial computed tomography (CT) scans were carried out on saline intact loess with sodium sulfate.

Dry/Wet Cycling and the Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Prebiotic Polymer Synthesis [PDF]
Life, 2016 The endoergic nature of protein and nucleic acid assembly in aqueous media presents two questions that are fundamental to the understanding of life’s origins: (i) how did the polymers arise in an aqueous prebiotic world; and (ii) once formed in some manner, how were they sufficiently persistent to engage in further chemistry.

Aging of recycled aggregates mortars by drying-wetting cycles
Construction and Building Materials, 2021 ABSTRACT: Due to the large amount of CO2 emissions produced nowadays by the construction sector, the scientific community is looking for measures that will bring constructions to the be as environmental-friendly as possible. One of the most popular lines of research is the use of construction waste as recycled aggregates for the production of recycled ...

Effect of Dry‐Wet Cycling on the Mechanical Properties of High‐Water Materials [PDF]
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 As a new grouting reinforcement material, high‐water materials (HWMs) are being increasingly applied in different fields. This means that the environment in which these HWMs are employed are varied and increasingly complex. The dehydrating and saturation cycle of HWM caused by changes in the environment is referred to as the dry‐wet cycle.

Drying-Wetting Cycles: Effect on Deep Soil Carbon [PDF]
Soil Systems, 2018 In the Southeast United States (U.S.), the climate is predicted to be warmer and have more severe drought in the summer. Decreasing rainfall in summer months should create more severe soil drying, which will eventually affect re-wetting cycles deeper in the soil profile.
