Study on softening characteristics of mudstones in shallow buried strata in Xinjiang and countermeasures for tunnel support

open access: yes矿业科学学报, 2021
The Xinjiang water conveyance tunnel is a shallow buried mudstone stratum. After the water absorption, the strength of the surrounding rock softens and large deformation occurs.

Modeling water penetration at dam-foundation joint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
When fracture occurs in a concrete dam, the crack mouth is typically exposed to water. Very often this phenomenon occurs at the dam-foundation joint and is driven also by the fluid pressure inside the crack.

Softening of Temperate Ice by Interstitial Water

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Ice at depth in ice-stream shear margins is thought to commonly be temperate, with interstitial meltwater that softens ice. Models that include this softening extrapolate results of a single experimental study in which ice effective viscosity decreased ...

3D Modeling and Numerical Simulation of a Water Softener Device

open access: yesThe Annals of “Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati. Fascicle IX, Metallurgy and Materials Science, 2019
Water treatment in the magnetic field is not an officially recognized method of water softening. This method can be promoted as an alternative to water softening without potentially toxic chemical agents.

Fruit characteristics and cuticle triterpenes as related to postharvest quality of highbush blueberries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Chilean fresh blueberries take 20-50 days to arrive by boat to the Northern hemisphere, softening and dehydration being the main defects upon arrival. The effect of maturity at harvest (75% blue, 100% blue, and overripe) on cuticular triterpene content ...

Study on the Softening Mechanism and Control of Red-Bed Soft Rock under Seawater Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Red-bed soft rock easily softens and disintegrates when it comes into contact with water, which is the main factor restricting the application of soft rock as an engineering filler.
