Examining the Effect of Pore Size Distribution and Shape on Flow through Unsaturated Peat using Computer Tomography [PDF]
, 2009 The hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated peat soil is controlled by the air-filled porosity, pore size and geometric distribution as well as other physical properties of peat materials. This study investigates how the size and shape of pores affects the

Influence of absolute soil humidity on the porosity of soil packing
Traktory i sel hozmashiny, 2012 The influence of absolute soil humidity on the porosity of soil packing is shown. It is noted that soil porosity will be reduced at the expense of decreasing of air pores and increasing of solid particles volume as a result of soil compression with mover, strake, block etc. at constant humidity. The analysis of obtained models is given.
