Effect of compaction pressure on consolidation behaviour of unsaturated silty soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The effect of compaction pressure on subsequent soil behaviour during isotropic consolidation has been investigated by conducting controlled-suction triaxial tests on samples of an unsaturated compacted silty soil.

Silage maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings emergence as influenced by soil compaction treatments and contact pressures

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2005
Soil compaction caused by mechanical force affects the vegetative and generative plant growth. Field experiments were conducted to study the effects of soil compaction treatments and soil contact pressures on bulk density, penetration resistance and ...

Review of manufacturers'recommendations on technological capabilities of ejectable excavator vibroplates assessment during soil compaction

open access: yesВестник СибАДИ, 2020
Introduction. Add-on compactors for excavators (ACE hereinafter) are replaceable working equipment for excavators. They are used for soil compaction after the backfill of trenches, wells, foundation cavities and other “narrow spaces” of construction, as ...

Impact of mechanized harvesting on compaction of sandy and clayey forest soils : results of a meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Nowadays, harvest operations are predominantly performed fully mechanized using heavy tractors or forestry machines. The resulting soil compaction may negatively affect the soil ecosystem.

Are soils in urban ecosystems compacted? A citywide analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Soil compaction adversely influences most terrestrial ecosystem services on which humans depend. This global problem, affecting over 68 million ha of agricultural land alone, is a major driver of soil erosion, increases flood frequency and reduces ...

Influence of soil tillage system on soil compaction and winter wheat yield

open access: yes, 2020
Tillage systems can affect soil compaction, water content, soil temperature, and yields of cultivated plants. This work examined a Vertisol and the influence of the tillage system on soil compaction and yield of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grains.

Visualization and quantification of soil laboratory impact compaction

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2022
As important methods to guide the field soil compaction, the standard and modified Proctor tests for laboratory compaction have remained unchanged for decades, which should be improved to better understand the compaction process and the properties of ...

Root anatomical traits contribute to deeper rooting of maize under compacted field conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
© The Author(s) 2020. To better understand the role of root anatomy in regulating plant adaptation to soil mechanical impedance, 12 maize lines were evaluated in two soils with and without compaction treatments under field conditions.

Compaction behaviour of clay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper presents an experimental study of the compaction behaviour of non-active clay. One-dimensional static compaction tests were carried out at high and medium water content with matric suction monitoring using Trento high-capacity tensiometers. At
