A Formulation for Scanning Soil-water Characteristic Curves

open access: yesJournal of Polytechnic, 2018
The hysteretic nature of soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) is captured assuming the virgin drying and virgin wetting (a.k.a. imbibition) curves; which can be obtained from experiments or various fitting equations in the literature, bound all possible values during transition from one regime to the other.

EFFECT OF SAMPLE RE-SATURATION ON SOIL-WATER CHARACTERISTIC CURVE

open access: yesRevista Caatinga, 2018
Soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is an important tool for water management in irrigated agriculture. However, factors such as texture and structure of soils influence SWCC behavior. According to the literature, wetting and drying cycles alter SWCC.

Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.

Predicting the soil-water characteristic curve from soil particle size distribution considering the film water

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan, 2017
Predicting soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) from particle size distribution was an easy, rapid and economical method. However, the traditional estimate of water content in this method didn't consider the adsorbed water films, which led to an ...

Prediction model for soil-water characteristic curve of loess under porosity change

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022
The loess has obvious macropore structure. The internal pores change continuously in the process of water immersion and collapsibility, resulting in the dynamic change of soil-water characteristic curve in the process of water immersion.

State of practice for use of the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) in geotechnical engineering

open access: yesCanadian geotechnical journal (Print), 2019
Routine geotechnical engineering practice has witnessed a significant increase in the usage of unsaturated soil mechanics principles. Laboratory measurement of the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) for a soil has been labelled as a primary reason ...

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.
