Mechanical behaviour of soil under drying-wetting cycles and vertical confining pressure [PDF]
A system for preparing soil specimens subjected to drying-wetting cycles whilst under vertical confining pressures is introduced with Clayey soil specimens subjected to different drying-wetting histories, then the relative performance tested using ...

Influence of Wetting-Drying Cycles on Wood Behaviour of Coastal Pedestrian Walkways
In the context of inspection and maintenance actions for beach walkways in the North of Portugal, some samples of wood used in their construction were collected – the <em>Pinus</em> <em>sylvestris</em> wood, widely applied in the country.

Impact of Wet-Dry Cycling on the Phase Behavior and Compartmentalization Properties of Complex Coacervates [PDF]
Wet-dry cycling on the early Earth is thought to have facilitated production of molecular building blocks of life, but thus far its impact on self-assembly and compartmentalization of resulting (macro)molecules has been limited. We investigated dehydration/rehydration of complex coacervates, which are membraneless compartments formed by phase ...

Damage to the Microstructure and Strength of Altered Granite under Wet–Dry Cycles [PDF]
This paper presents an analytical method for surrounding rocks in symmetrically shaped tunnels or roadways, with the symmetrical rise and fall of groundwater over a certain period. The influence of reservoir water level on wet–dry cycles were studied.

Uranium storage mechanisms in wet-dry redox cycled sediments
Biogeochemical redox processes that govern radionuclide mobility in sediments are highly sensitive to forcing by the water cycle. For example, episodic draining and intrusion of oxidants into reduced zones during dry seasons can create biogeochemical seasonal hotspots of enhanced and changed microbial activity, affect the redox status of minerals ...
