Effect of Land-use Management Systems on Coupled Hydraulic Mechanical Soil Processes Defining the Climate-Food-Energy-Water Nexus. [PDF]
Bulgarian Journal of Soil Science, 2019 Soils are the most critical life-supporting compartments of the biosphere. They provide numerous ecosystem services such as habitat for biodiversity, water and nutrients, as well as producing food, feed, fiber and energy.

Prediction of geotechnical properties of deltaic clays by using regression analysis models [PDF]
Egyptian Journal of Pure and Applied Science, 2022 Establishment of any engineering structure on a compressible clay leads to settlement and/or failure through this clay. The amount of settlement is related mainly to the compressibility parameters while the failure to the undrained strength.

Estimation of precompression stress in an Ultisol cultivated with sugarcane
Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2019 Compressive soil properties are typically used for the understanding of compaction process. As an alternative to laboratory tests, pedo-transfer functions have been used to estimate the mechanical behaviour of soil as a function of soil physical ...
