A Simple Method of Identifying an Expansive Soil
Soils and Foundations, 1973 ABSTRACT Expansive soils pose a problem to the construction engineers. At present there is no universally accepted simple procedure for identifying these soils. The authors present in this paper a method for identifying expansive soils from its liquid limit, plasticity index and shrinkage index values.

Root‐Stimulated Movements in Mimosa Pudica for Biohybrid Robotic Systems
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study demonstrates that thermal and electrical stimulation of Mimosa pudica root induces movement of the petiole and pinnules without direct stimulation of the aerial organs, thereby enabling a plant‐based robotic gripper and providing a foundation for the development of intelligent and sustainable systems.

Lime slurry stabilisation of an expansive soil
, 2003 Lime slurry and lime pile techniques are viable choices for in-situ stabilisation of expansive soil deposits. This paper reports the results of a laboratory study on in-situ chemical stabilisation of an expansive soil that permeated lime slurry through ...

Stabilization of muscat’s expansive soil using bottom ash from medical waste incineration [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesExpansive soils are inherently known for exhibiting significant volumetric change in response to slight variation in the moisture content. In this study, medical waste material in the form of bottom ash (BA) was investigated as a potential stabilizer for

A Rare Allele of ST5 From Wild Rice Enhances Salt Tolerance in Rice
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A novel salt‐tolerance gene ST5W, characterized by a unique 36‐bp promoter insertion, is found exclusively in a small subset of Oryza rufipogon and is absent in cultivated rice. Field trials confirm ST5W significantly enhances rice yield across diverse genetic backgrounds under saline conditions.
