Influence of Soil Wetting and Drying Cycles on Soil Detachment

open access: yesAgriEngineering, 2022
Agricultural soils undergo periods of saturation followed by desiccation throughout the course of a growing season. It is believed that these periods of wetting and drying influence soil structure and may affect the rate of soil detachment.

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 ...

Experimental Study on Dynamic Compression Characteristics of Red Sandstone under Wetting-Drying Cycles

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
To study the influence of wetting-drying cycles on dynamic mechanical properties of rock masses, the impact compression tests of red sandstone samples were carried out by using a split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) apparatus with a diameter of 50 mm. The
