Effect of bituminous impregnation on nonwoven geotextiles tensile and permeability properties
, 2011 Geosynthetics interlayer systems are effective techniques to control reflective cracking in damaged pavements. It comprises the inclusion of nonwoven geotextiles between the damaged layer and the new overlay of the pavement to reduce the propagation of ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Regulations and the collective influence of the value chain compel business‐to‐business (B2B) actors within the nonwoven (NW) manufacturing industry to drive sustainable development. However, the literature rarely addresses how B2B actors aim to align with sustainable development to co‐create value and what challenges they face.

Sustainability aspects of using geotextiles [PDF]
, 2016 The sustainability of materials and processes is commonly assessed by calculating the carbon emissions (CO2) generated. This is a simplification, but the ease of calculation encourages the comparison of solutions; it makes the output of assessments ...

Mulching does not improve seedling survival or growth during early forest restoration
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Weed control is one of the main operational challenges and cost components of tropical forest restoration in former pasturelands. Physical barriers (mulches) have been proposed as an alternative to conventional ring weeding because they can suppress competing vegetation while potentially improving the soil microenvironment ...

Properties of meandrical geotextiles designed for the protection of soil against erosion
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 Changes in climatic conditions in the world often affect the variability of water relations and soil erosion. Observed phenomena lead to removal of the most valuable soil surface layer from slopes, washout of minerals, deterioration of slope structure ...
