Modeling SWCC for Coarse-Grained and Fine-Grained Soil

2020
Following Chap. 2, the work is extended to predict SWCC of a soil with different initial densities by using Bayesian method, for both coarse-grained and fine-grained soil. An adjustment parameter (β) is introduced to express the relationships between the matric suctions of two soil samples.

Measurement of SWCC of Xiamen Residual Soil by Filter Paper

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012
Soil suction is one of the most important parameters for unsaturated soils. An experimental program was carried out to measure the maric suction of soil specimens of a residual soil in Xiamen by filter paper method. Initial water content, soil structure, and stress state were taken into account to investigate the hysteresis loop of SWCC.

Toyobo and SWCC to pilot test membrane technology

Filtration Industry Analyst, 2019
Japan's Toyobo Co Ltd and Saudi Arabia's Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on a joint pilot test aimed at realizing the practical application of a new brine concentration (BC) membrane technology that uses concentrated brine discharged by seawater desalination plants.

Study of measured and fitted SWCC accounting the irregularity in the measured dataset

International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 2016
The relationship between soil suction and water content, popularly known as the soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) provides significant information to evaluate the behaviour of unsaturated soils in engineering practice. For measuring soil suction over the entire range, combination of suction measurements from different instruments is quite common ...

Laboratory versus field SWCC data

2009
Soil Water Characteristic Curves (SWCCs) are typically determined in the laboratory by performing drying tests on samples in a Tempe cell. In some cases, re-wetting is also carried out. The advantage of using drying tests is that they are carried out from the saturated state at a given sample test density, so that there is some chance of obtaining ...

Use of SWCCs to describe the dewatering of product coal

2009
Australian product coals are becoming finer-grained, mainly due to improvements in the performance of ultra-fine coal recovery methods. The finer the product coal size fraction, the more capacity it has to store water during beneficiation and the higher the pressure required to facilitate dewatering to meet the specified moisture. Following the removal
