Investigation into water retention behaviour of deformable soils [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Geotechnical Journal, 2013
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 ...

The development of theory-informed participant-centred interventions to maximise participant retention in randomised controlled trials

open access: yesTrials, 2022
Background A failure of clinical trials to retain participants can influence the trial findings and significantly impact the potential of the trial to influence clinical practice.

Application of liquid chromatography in defining the interaction of newly synthesized chalcones and related compounds with human serum albumin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2023
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 ...

Assessing effective interventions to improve trial retention: do they contain behaviour change techniques?

open access: yesTrials, 2020
Background Clinical trials often struggle to retain the number of participants required to make valid and reliable assessments about the effectiveness of treatments.

Study of RP HPLC Retention Behaviours in Analysis of Carotenoids [PDF]

open access: yesChromatographia, 2014
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

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology, 2021
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]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
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.

Effects of pyrolysis temperature, feedstock type and compaction on water retention of biochar amended soil

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Recent studies on water retention behaviour of biochar amended soil rarely considers the effect of pyrolysis temperature and also feedstock type into account.

Experimental analysis of the water retention behaviour of shales [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences, 2014
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.
