Textural soil bulk density. I. - Measurement
The textural soil bulk density is assumed here to be the result of the elementary fabric of soils components. Natural soils samples are taken in order to study the relationships between particle size distribution and textural bulk density values for dry soils. These values are measured on natural and remoulded samples.

Near infrared spectroscopy for soil bulk density assessment
Soil bulk density values are needed to convert organic carbon content to mass of organic carbon per unit area. However, field sampling and measurement of soil bulk density are labour‐intensive, costly and tedious. Near‐infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) is a physically non‐destructive, rapid, reproducible and low‐cost method ...

3D Printed Omniphobic Slippery Liquid Infused Porous Surfaces for Low Surface Tension Repellency
A 3D printing strategy fabricates omniphobic slippery liquid‐infused porous structures with lubricant reservoirs and interconnected microchannels. A post‐printing surface treatment modifies the porous surface to ensure compatibility with the infused fluorinated lubricant.

Here, we present a textile, wearable capacitive interface enabling multidirectional remote control by dynamically modulating electrode overlap and spacing via a freely gliding upper electrode. A forearm‐mounted prototype drives robotic and media tasks with 12–15 ms latency, maintains < 0.8% drift after 500 cycles, and remains stably functional at 90 ...
