Influence of chemical denudation on hillslope morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
[1] Models of hillslope evolution involving diffusion-like sediment transport are conventionally presented as an equation in which the changes in land-surface elevation or soil thickness are balanced by the divergence of soil transport and tectonic ...

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.

Echinoderm‐Inspired Autonomy for Soft‐Legged Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Inspired by echinoderms, a modular soft robot achieves autonomous phototaxis without a central controller or explicit communication. Each limb independently adapts its actuation timing through local sensing and short‐term memory. Coordination emerges purely from physical interactions, demonstrating resilience to changes in morphology, environment, and ...

Relação da granulometria do solo e morfologia do saprolito com a infiltração de água em Neossolos Regolíticos do rebordo do Planalto do Rio Grande do Sul Relationship between soil size particle distribution and saprolite morphology with water infiltration in Neossolos Regolíticos (Regossols) in the Rio Grande do Sul Plateau edge

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2009
Os Neossolos Regolíticos apresentam baixo potencial de uso devido a sua pequena profundidade efetiva, à presença de pedregosidade/rochosidade, ao contato lítico próximo à superfície e à ocorrência frequente em terrenos declivosos.
