Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2023 Soil water content (SWC) is one of the critical indicators in various fields such as geotechnical engineering and agriculture. To avoid the time-consuming, destructive, and laborious drawbacks of conventional SWC measurements, the image-based SWC ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...

Application of discontinuity layout optimization to plane plasticity problems [PDF]
, 2007 A new and potentially widely applicable numerical analysis procedure for continuum mechanics problems is described. The procedure is used here to determine the critical layout of discontinuities and associated upper-bound limit load for plane plasticity ...

Application of a state-dependent hyperelastic-plastic constitutive model for slope stability analysis of fiber-reinforced sand [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesFiber-reinforced soils are widely used in the field of geotechnics to enhance slope stability. Still, proper consideration of fiber inclusions for slope stability analyses remains challenging since advanced consti- tutive models for fiber-reinforced ...

How solid–liquid adsorption affects the liquid–vapor interface in pores
Vadose Zone Journal, 2022 The augmented Young–Laplace (AYL) equation has been widely used to describe the liquid–vapor interfaces affected by capillarity and adsorption, particularly in nanoporous or clay minerals where strong adsorptive interaction prevails.

Advanced 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
Advanced 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.

THE CONSISTENCY CONDITIONS FOR DENSITY LIMITS OF HYPOPLASTIC CONSTITUTIVE LAW
TASK Quarterly, 2000 The so called phase diagram of grain skeletons illustrates the range of possible void ratios between the pressure dependent bounds ei and et. It can be shown that in the framework of the actual hypoplastic model these bounds can be surpassed by ...
