Degradation mechanism of shear strength and compressive strength of red sandstone in drawdown areas during reservoir operation

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
So far, the researches on the degradation of macroscopic strength of rock under cyclic wetting-drying conditions in the course of reservoir operation mainly focus on simulations of single environmental conditions without considering the combined actions ...

Sandstone Slope Stability Analysis Under Wetting-Drying Cycles Based on Generalized Hoek-Brown Failure Criterion

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The deterioration of rock strength due to cyclic fluctuations in the groundwater level in drawdown regions influences bank slope stability. Based on wetting–drying cycling and uniaxial compression tests of sandstone specimens, the intact rock strength ...

Impact of Wet-Dry Cycling on the Phase Behavior and Compartmentalization Properties of Complex Coacervates [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
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 ...

Drying-Wetting Cycles: Effect on Deep Soil Carbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In the Southeast United States (U.S.), the climate is predicted to be warmer and have more severe drought in the summer. Decreasing rainfall in summer months should create more severe soil drying, which will eventually affect re-wetting cycles deeper in ...

Slope Crack Propagation Law and Numerical Simulation of Expansive Soil under Wetting–Drying Cycles

open access: yesSustainability, 2023
This study investigated the crack propagation law of expansive soil slopes under drying–wetting conditions and the influence of cracks on slopes by conducting a large-scale indoor slope test subjected to drying–wetting cycles. The change in soil moisture
