The role of conservation soil management on soil and water protection at different spatial scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Agriculture has a direct impact on the soil environment, altering soil properties, surface characteristics and erosion risk. This has led to a move away from conventional tillage to the adoption of conservation practices, aiming to minimise soil ...

3D Printed Omniphobic Slippery Liquid Infused Porous Surfaces for Low Surface Tension Repellency

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
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.

EXPANSION OF A CYLINDRICAL CAVITY IN SAND

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2000
The paper presents numerical solution to the problem of the symmetric quasi-static large-strain expansion of a cylindrical cavity in sand. The boundary value problem is solved with the use of a constitutive equation of hypoplasticity calibrated for a ...

Agar‐Based Optical Sensing System With a Phosphorescent Grid Pattern for Measuring Stress Distributions of Root Growth Using the Sampling Moiré Method

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper presents an agar medium with a phosphorescent grid pattern that measures the stress distribution generated by growing plant roots. Using phosphorescence, the system optically separates the grid pattern from the root and extracts the grid deformation.

CALCULATION OF SOIL DISPLACEMENTS DUE TO RETAINING WALL CONSTRUCTION

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2000
With regard to serviceability state deformations, diaphragm walls and slurry walls cause considerable soil deformations during trench construction. 3-dimensional finite element analyses are able to quantify these deformations.

An approach for predicting the stability of vertical cuts in cohesionless soils above the water table

open access: yes, 2013
Temporary vertical excavations in cohesionless (granular soils) pose a problem for conventional ‘two-phase’ soil mechanics theory since non-zero collapse height is not predicted using the classical ‘dry/saturated’ shear strength criterion, given that ...

Biodegradable Wireless Soil Urea Sensor Using Metamaterial Perfect Absorber for Distributed Deployment in Precision Agriculture

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
In this study, we propose a biodegradable wireless soil urea sensor for precision agriculture. The sensor's electromagnetic response varies depending on the urea concentration, allowing the measurement of relative soil urea concentrations by analyzing the time‐transient electromagnetic response.

Comparative Study on the Reinforced Sand-Bed and the Stone Column in Improving the Clay Deposit Supporting Isolated Footing

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
The working mechanism of a geotechnical structure can be understood from the deformations and the vertical stresses in the soil media. This article attempts to study the deformation, vertical stress development, and distribution of improved clay deposits
