Simulating infiltration processes into fractured and swelling soils as triggering factors of landslides [PDF]

, 2013
The influence of rainfall in triggering landslides is a widely discussed topic in scientific literature. The slope stability of fractured surface soils is often influenced by the soil suction.

Genome‐Wide Association Study of Symptom Change Following Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Common Mental Disorders

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a well‐established, evidence‐based treatment for common mental disorders such as depression, anxiety disorders, and obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD). However, treatment outcomes vary widely, and a substantial proportion of patients do not achieve sufficient improvement.

Large-scale direct shear tests on properties of geogrid-soil interfaces

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
The properties of geogrid-soil interface directly influences the safety and stability of reinforced earth projects. However, there are few researches on the interface properties of geogrid with different soil materials at the two sides of geogrid.

Modelling of collapse settlement by effective stress and shear strength interaction for granite residual soil / Ismacahyadi Bagus Mohamed Jais [PDF]

, 2014
Over the years, consolidation settlement has always been associated with effective stress increase. However, in unsaturated soils, volume change behaviour of soils due to wetting is always complex due to changes of the soil when it is inundated. The main

Shear strength anisotropy of rooted soils [PDF]

Géotechnique
The shear strength of rooted soils depends on the principal stress direction owing to the anisotropy in the soil structure and root system. Existing failure criteria cannot describe the strength anisotropy of rooted soils under general loading conditions because they are mainly based on the test results of direct shear.

Biopolymer‐Coated Paper Composites for Sustainable Packaging

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional plastic packaging, though dominant in food and flexible applications, poses serious environmental concerns due to its persistence and limited recyclability. To address this challenge, this study develops bio‐based coated paper composites as sustainable alternatives. Paper, while biodegradable, lacks adequate barrier properties. To

Experimental study on the shear creep behavior of residual soil with varying rock content.

PLoS ONE
Using residual soil from the Shanghecun landslide in the western Henan Province, shear creep tests of residual soil samples with different rock contents (RCs) were performed to explore the creep characteristics, creep rate, and long-term strength of the ...
