The effect of human activities on moisture content of soils and underlying permafrost from the McMurdo Sound region, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Soils and the underlying permafrost from undisturbed sites and sites that had been disturbed by construction activities at Marble Point and Pram Point in the McMurdo Sound region were sampled from excavated pits and drill cores. Gravimetric moisture (ice)

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

Kinetics of Moisture Sorption and Reverse Bias Degradation in Chip Tantalum Capacitors [PDF]

open access: yes
Exposure of chip MnO2 tantalum capacitors to humid environments might result in increased ESR, leakage currents, and first turn-on failures. However, there is a lack of literature data on the effect of moisture on reverse bias behavior of the parts.

Winter Wheat Harvest Date Trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In New England, frequent rainfall, and prolonged high humidity are common during the period of wheat ripening. From the time of physiological maturity of the grain to acceptable storage moisture, the quality of the wheat can decline considerably due to ...

Handbook of Establishing and Maintaining Oxygen‐Free Atmospheres

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a practical framework for creating oxygen‐free atmospheres at ambient pressure using silane‐doped inert gases. The results show that ultra‐low oxygen levels and strongly reduced water content can be achieved through controlled silane dosing, drying systems, and sensor monitoring.

Evaluation of moisture damage for warm mix asphalt (WMA) containing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP)

open access: yesOpen Engineering
Warm mix asphalt (WMA) has attracted a lot of interest and attention from the pavement industry since it was introduced as a potential solution to replace traditional hot mix asphalt (HMA).

Influence of compaction temperature on the resistance of a stabilized granular material with asphalt cement

open access: yesTecnoLógicas, 2015
The influence of compaction temperature on the mechanical resistance and susceptibility to water of a bound granular material with asphalt cement (called MGEA) was evaluated in laboratory.

Oxide‐Free Titanium Coatings by Wire Arc Spraying in a Silane‐Doped Inert Atmosphere

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A silane‐doped argon atmosphere enables the production of oxide‐free titanium coatings via twin‐wire arc spraying at ambient pressure. This innovative approach eliminates residual oxygen, creating process conditions that prevent oxidation and nitride formation.

Influence of Antistripping Additives and Rejuvenators on Healing Performance of Moisture-Damaged HMA

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
This study aims to evaluate the effect of different rejuvenators and antistripping agents on the healing performance of hot mix asphalt (HMA). Two damage HMA series (e.g., moisture damage and aged damage) were subjected to either induction or microwave ...

Nanoscale Quantification of Moisture Susceptibility of Paving Asphalts [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
Moisture-induced damage due to stripping is one of the major concerns to the highway agencies in recent years. In this study, nanoscopic investigations were carried out to examine the effects of moisture in asphalt binders.
