Soil crusting in Western Samoa. Part II - Experimental investigation of factors influencing crust formation [PDF]
, 1971 The Alafua Penetrometer was used to measure relative differences in soil crust strength. Crust strength and thickness were shown to increase with increases in rainfall amount, drying time, droplet size, kinetic energy and soil clay and silt content.

Energy Technology, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.This work presents multilayer NCM622 cathodes with functionally graded inactive components (binder and carbon black) to evaluate their impact on electrode performance. By separating mechanical and transport contributions through graded architecture, the study identifies performance changes with increasing loading and shows a clear impact at high ...

A novel approach for in situ benthic habitat characterization
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Habitat heterogeneity is a key driver of temporal and spatial variability of subtidal marine benthic biodiversity. However, this makes it a challenging environment in which to measure and quantify the factors driving biodiversity in a consistent manner.

The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review
Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 4094-4115, September 2026.ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

Analysis of Correlations between Cone Penetrometer and Pencel Pressuremeter Parameters [PDF]
, 2013 PENCEL Pressuremeter and Cone Penetrometer tests were performed at two sites chosen in Florida. One of the sites was predominately clays and the second was sands. The study goal was to reveal that pushed-in PENCEL tests would produce reliable engineering
