Estimation of Philip Equation Sorptivity Factor by Two Methods Using Disc Permeameter [PDF]
Determination of unsaturated soil hydraulic parameters are important for assessment and understanding of many processes. These processes include as: runoff and rainfall infiltration, salt, contaminations and nutrition elements transmission in soil and ...

Investigation on Properties of Reactive Powder Concrete with Automobile Grinding Steel Waste as Fine Aggregate [PDF]
High strength concrete is seldom used in normal construction practice due to its high cost and difficulties in achieving the desired design strength. This paper gives an insight on using waste material which has been disposed in lands as a sustainable ...

Impact of secondary succession in abandoned fields on some properties of acidic sandy soils
Abandonment of agricultural lands in recent decades is occurring mainly in Europe, North America and Oceania, and changing the fate of landscapes as the ecosystem recovers during fallow stage.

Reducing concrete permeability by using natural pozzolans and reduced aggregate-to-pasteratio
Improved durability of concrete is mainly achieved with low-permeability. Permeability depends on permeability of the bulk cement paste (CP) and that of its interfacial transition zone (ITZ).

Effect of Sodium Stearate on the Microstructure and Hydration Process of Alkali-Activated Material
In response to the high water sorptivity of alkali-activated slag–red mud–steel slag cementitious material (AASRSS), water and aggressive ions are easily transferred to the interior of cementitious materials, which poses a significant threat to their ...

Integral estimates of the sorptivity
The second-order accuracy of several well-known integral estimates of the sorptivity is shown to be limited to a particular class of rapidly varying diffusivities.

Influence of drying on concrete sorptivity
The experimental programme described in this paper indicated that concrete grade and specimen preconditioning were the major factors influencing sorptivity, whereas specimen size and coating had relatively little effect.

Absorption and sorptivity of cover concrete [PDF]
The absorption characteristics and sorptivity of cover concrete obtained by the initial surface absorption test (ISAT), the covercrete absorption test (CAT), and the sorptivity test have been studied and compared.

Infiltration into Water-Repellent Sand: The Role of Sorptivity
Soil water repellency (SWR) is believed to contribute to the increased potential for post-fire runoff and erosion. Currently, no quantitative method exists to account for SWR in physically-based runoff models.
