Experimental Investigation on Engineering Properties of Concrete Incorporating Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement and Rice Husk Ash

Buildings, 2018
Waste generation from agricultural and construction industries is growing at an upsetting rate that causes a heavy burden on landfill facilities. On the other hand, the construction industry is exhausting natural resources thereby posing environmental ...

Land use overrides climatic controls on soil organic nitrogen transformations: Contrasting responsiveness between forest and cropland ecosystems

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2128-2142, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil organic nitrogen (SON) transformation is critical for global nutrient cycling and ecosystem productivity, yet how its responsiveness to climate change differs across diverse land use types remains poorly resolved.

Thermodynamics‐Based THMC Model for Solute Transport in Sorptive Fractured Rock: Coupling Multi‐Phase Flow, Heat, and Deformation

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Fractured porous rocks host a complex interplay of heat, fluids, deformation, and chemical reactions, yet their combined influence on solute transport remains poorly resolved. Here we show that these processes are more tightly coupled than previously assumed.

SORPTIVITY AND CHLORIDE PENETRABILITY EVALUATION OF CONCRETE INCORPORATING FLY ASH AND SILICA FUME

Journal of Civil Engineering
Diffusion is one of the the main mechanisms of fluid ingress into the concrete. However, in partially saturated concrete, the fluid will mainly be absorbed by the capillary suction mechanism, which associates with the sorptivity properties of the ...

Relationship between sorptivity and capillary coefficient for water absorption of cement-based materials: theory analysis and experiment [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2019
The durability of cement-based materials depends on the property of water absorption. In this work, a technique of X-ray CT combined with CsCl enhancing was used to continuously monitor the dynamic process of water uptake in cement-based materials and ...

Influence of Higher Concentrations of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes on the Tensile and Flexural Performance of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
The addition of MWCNTs enhanced the tensile and flexural behavior of GFRP composites. Maximum strength and stiffness were obtained at 3 wt% MWCNTs, whereas intermediate contents showed reduced performance due to poor dispersion. The results confirm that uniform nanotube dispersion is essential for achieving reliable mechanical performance in GFRP ...

Development of a universal microinfiltrometer to estimate extent and persistence of soil water repellency as a function of capillary pressure and interface chemical composition

Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2020
Microinfiltrometers to assess soil water repellency (SWR) are limited to small tension ranges and have different technical setups, hindering a comparison between results from different laboratories.

Gas Chromatography‐Based Methods for Profiling Volatile Off‐Aroma Compounds in Grain Legumes: A Review

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Instrumental characterisation of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs), responsible for off‐aroma, is mainly centred on gas chromatography‐based techniques. Despite previous reviews that have addressed the chemical compounds and biosynthetic pathways of off‐aroma generation, to date, there is a lack of a comprehensive review that critically ...
