Chloride transport in estuarine ship-lock concrete structure exposed to a unique seawater corrosive environment with low chlorine-salt concentrations and high-frequency drying‒wetting cycles: Experimental study and computational model

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
Estuarine ship-locks are the navigational structures closest to the sea, which can form a unique seawater corrosive environment characterized by low chlorine-salt concentrations and high-frequency drying‒wetting cycles.

Shear Strength Durability Investigation for Gypseous Soil Enhanced by Pectin Biopolymer

open access: yesTikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences
Several studies have shown that biopolymers improve soil; however, they mostly looked at how the shear strength and collapsibility improved without looking at how long the treatments would last.

Dynamic behavior and constitutive model of marble subjected to wet-dry cycling

open access: yesPLOS One
The cyclic deterioration induced by periodic water-level fluctuations, combining dry-wet cycles and chemical corrosion, poses significant threats to the stability and durability of rock masses in reservoir areas. These effects become particularly critical under dynamic loading conditions.

Impact of wetting/drying cycles on the hydromechanical behaviour of a treated soil

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The positive effects of lime or cement treatment could be altered by weathering in the very long term. In this context, the main purpose of this study is to examine the impact of wetting/drying cycles on the strength and the hydraulic conductivity of a compacted soil treated with lime and cement.

Factors for strength attenuation of mudstone during slaking and disintegration

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
Slaking, a common engineering characteristic, is the main weathering mode from clay-bearing rocks to soils. Due to the influences of wetting-drying cycles of natural climate, mudstone can slake and disintegrate into the grains with different sizes, which

The Effects of Inorganic Fertilization on Soil Shrinkage in Wetting-drying Cycles

open access: yesGuan'gai paishui xuebao, 2021
【Objective】 Swelling and shrinkage are important process reshaping soil structure. It is impacted by many factors, and the objective of this paper is to investigate how fertilization impacts this process. 【Method】 We used a silty loam in the experiment. The soil was fertilized using different inorganic N and K fertilizers at concentrations ranging from
