Buoyant Advection of Gases in Unsaturated Soil [PDF]
Journal of Environmental Engineering, 1994 In unsaturated soil, methane and volatile organic compounds can significantly alter the density of soil gas and induce buoyant gas flow. A series of laboratory experiments was conducted in a two-dimensional, homogeneous sand pack with gas permeabilities ranging from 110 to 3,000 darcy. Pure methane gas was injected horizontally into the sand and steady-

Geosciences, 2019 The formation of desiccation cracks in unsaturated soils as a discontinuity phenomenon can compromise the integrity of civil infrastructure on unsaturated soils. Because of the singularity at such discontinuities, the mathematical modeling of desiccation

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.Integrated multi‐omics reveals that CD36‐mediated lipid overload in PBMCs drives T cell exhaustion via sub‐lethal ferroptotic stress and AKT suppression. This systemic metabolic signature serves as a robust predictor of immunotherapy response in HCC, suggesting that modulating lipid metabolism can rescue immune fitness.

Observations of Unsaturated Soils by Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy in Dynamic Mode
, 2008 The Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM) allows observation of hydrated samples in their original state. Imaging can be done at a constant vapour pressure and temperature or in dynamic conditions to observe a sample response to changes of ...

Test verification of stress state variables for unsaturated soils
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2017 In order to verify the reasonableness of two stress state variables for unsaturated soils and to improve the accuracy of tests, the triaxial apparatus for conventional unsaturated soils has been improved to control the pore water pressure, the inner and ...

Comparative Study on the Field- and Lab-Based Soil-Water Characteristic Curves for Expansive Soils
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2022 Expansive soils are problematic and viewed as a potential hazard for buildings and structures due to swell and shrink phenomena. The damaging effect of these soils is strongly correlated with the soil-water characteristics of expansive soils present in ...
