Deformation of Geotextile confined in Soil

open access: yesProceedings of geotextile symposium, 1990
The laboratory pull-out test of the nonwoven fabric confined in sand was performed to examine the deformation of the geotextile confined in soil. As a result, because the lateral contraction of the nonwoven fabric decreases as normal stress increases, it was able to estimate that the lateral contraction will not develop as the lateral contractible ...

High Density Polyethylene/Ground Tire Rubber Composites Compatibilized by Dicumyl Peroxide

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the thermal behavior of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) was first evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which confirmed a peak decomposition temperature around 172°C, highlighting its incompatibility with standard melt‐mixing techniques for most polyolefins. To overcome this limitation,

Inter‐ and intraspecific variation in theropod dinosaur dental microwear and its palaeoecological implications

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Differences in skull and tooth morphology, stomach contents, and estimated bite force between medium‐to‐large sized (≥100 kg) predatory theropod dinosaurs have long been suspected to correlate with differences in their diets and dietary guilds (e.g., hypercarnivory, piscivory).

Deformation, resistance characteristics, and scale effects of rockfall protection soil embankments under static loading

open access: yesSoils and Foundations
Rockfall protection soil embankments are structures that can effectively reduce rockfall hazards along roads. They are economical and easy to construct and maintain by using locally available soil.

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

One-dimensional compression of a crushable sand in dry and wet conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper presents the results of a series of dry and wet one-dimenional compression tests on a calcareous sand from the Persian Gulf. Calcareous grains crush more easily compared to silica grains, a fact that is mainly attributed to their angular shape

Coherence‐Gated Wrapped‐Phase InSAR With Matrix‐Based Uncertainty Diagnostics for Burial‐Mound Hotspot Ranking (Sicily, Italy)

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Burial mounds are key elements of Mediterranean funerary landscapes, but in intensively cultivated coastal plains their low‐relief expression is easily obscured by ploughing, levelling and rapidly changing surface conditions, making single‐date observations unreliable.

A sustainable business ecosystem: a case study demonstrating biochar's potential

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The need for renewable, climate‐friendly resources has become urgent as legislators worldwide have sought to find ways to cut emissions while ensuring resource security for consumers. The use of biochar could help to achieve these goals. This study examines the current state of commercial biochar production and the maturity of the related ...

Between soft power and suspicion: Chinese international students as diasporic actors in U.S.‐China geopolitical tensions

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the under‐theorized political role and identity of Chinese international students, who emerge as significant actors caught between U.S. soft power ambitions and rising geopolitical suspicion. Amid escalating U.S.‐China tensions, these students are forced to confront environments shaped by competing geopolitical discourses ...
