Investigation into water retention behaviour of deformable soils [PDF]
The paper presents an experimental and modelling approach for the soil-water retention behaviour of two deformable soils. The objective is to investigate the physical mechanisms that govern the soil-water retention properties and to propose a constitutive framework for the soil-water retention curve accounting for the initial state of compaction and ...

Application of liquid chromatography in defining the interaction of newly synthesized chalcones and related compounds with human serum albumin [PDF]
Defining the interaction of newly synthesized compounds with plasma proteins is an important step in the drug development process. Chromatographic techniques can be successfully used in predicting the biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic properties of ...

Study of RP HPLC Retention Behaviours in Analysis of Carotenoids [PDF]
For determination of selected carotenoids, various types of columns for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with different properties have been used. The characteristics of the laboratory-used packing material containing monomeric alkyl-bonded phases (C18, C30) and phenyl as well as phenyl-hexyl stationary phases were studied.

Modelling the water retention behaviour of anisotropic soils
Abstract Water retention curve (WRC) is an important parameter for unsaturated soils. It is greatly affected by the anisotropy of pore structure, as supported by experimental results in the literature. So far, however, the mechanism and theoretical modelling of anisotropy effects have not been investigated.

An Investigation into the Water Retention Behaviour of an Unsaturated Natural Fissured Clay [PDF]
The presence of intensely fissured soils is often found to relate to high geotechnical risks, such as landslide risk. This is especially the case of the Southern Apennines, Italy, where slopes formed of intensely fissured clays are frequently affected by landslides.

Experimental analysis of the water retention behaviour of shales [PDF]
Shales are among the most commonly considered geomaterials in current energy-related geomechanical investigations, as they are involved in engineering applications such as the extraction of natural gas, CO2 sequestration and nuclear waste storage.
