Experimental Study on Water Lubrication Characteristics of Full-Flat Thrust Bearing with Partial Water-Repellent Surface

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2013
In this study, a flat thrust bearing is developed by active exploiting the slip flow generated on a water-repellent surface. In order to produce a load, this bearing has a structure that generates a pressure flow by using the discontinuity of shear flow ...

The influence of water repellent products on the chromatic modifications of the ceramic brick

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2011
Chromatic variation, colour and luminosity, undergone by the ceramic support protected by the incorporation of a treatment with water repellent products, is analysed. A new methodology is suggested, based on RGB model where quantifiable values from each

Is the Rhizosphere Temporarily Water Repellent?

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2012
The rhizosphere has a controlling role in the flow of water and nutrients from soil to plant roots; however, its hydraulic properties are not well understood. As roots grow, they change the pore size distribution of the surrounding soil. Roots release polymeric substances such as mucilage into their rhizosphere. Microorganisms living in the rhizosphere

Water Movement and Finger Flow Characterization in Homogeneous Water-Repellent Soils

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2018
Soil water repellency (SWR) is a widespread property in soils around the world. It influences soil water movement and causes unstable flow. The mechanics of finger flow occurrence in water-repellent soils are not clearly understood.
