Influence of Varying Curing Temperatures on the Mechanical and Durability-Related Performance of Multi-SCM Blended High-Strength Self-Compacting Concrete

Buildings
Self-compacting concrete (SCC) offers major advantages in construction; however, its high paste content makes its performance highly sensitive to curing temperature and binder composition.

Exploring the Controllability of Microbial Metabolism on the Flavor of Chinese Baijiu

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Regulation of flavor compounds by core functional microorganisms. ABSTRACT The flavor and quality of Baijiu are closely related to the environment and microbial metabolism. The microbial community structure is highly dynamic in time and space, making it trouble to control the flavor and quality of Baijiu. Therefore, this paper reviewed the role of core

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 ...

A Targeted Approach to High-Volume Fly Ash Concrete Pavement (Phase I) [PDF]

, 2018
Unlike the conventional method of admixing nanomaterials directly in fresh concrete mixture, a more targeted approach was explored. Specifically, nanomaterials were used to improve the interface between coarse aggregate and cement paste, by coating the ...

Nutrients, Metals, and Carbon in Soils Irrigated With Treated Versus Untreated Wastewater

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 1, Page 131-142, February 2026.
Transitioning from untreated to treated wastewater irrigation reduced soluble N and P but enhanced Cr, Fe and Ni mobilization in long‐term wastewater‐irrigated Mezquital Valley soils, highlighting soil‐type‐dependent effects. ABSTRACT Background Reuse of wastewater for irrigation can mitigate pressure on water resources and support closing nutrient ...

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.

Soil Organic Matter Stabilization by Polyvalent Cations in a Buried Alkaline Soil

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Buried paleosols can store large quantities of organic carbon (C), much of which persists for millennia due to isolation from surface processes that promote decomposition. Subsoil organic matter (SOM) persistence is often enhanced by mineral associations and ionic conditions—particularly high clay content and polyvalent cations—that limit ...

Rhizosphere-scale quantification of hydraulic and mechanical properties of soil impacted by root and seed exudates [PDF]

, 2018
Using rhizosphere-scale physical measurements we test the hypothesis that plant exudates gel together soil particles and on drying they enhance soil water repellency.
