Cracking of silty mudstone subjected to wetting-drying cycles

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Cracking affected by wetting-drying cycles is a major cause of shallow failure of soft rock slopes. Knowledge of rock tensile properties and cracking behaviors helps better assess the stability of soft rock slopes. This study aims to examine the cracking

Impact of wetting–drying cycles on swelling behavior of clayey soils modified by silica fume

, 2011
Expansive clayey soils contain silicate clay minerals that have the potential for swelling and shrinkage under changing moisture contents. Cyclic wetting drying phenomena can cause progressive deformation of expansive clayey soils, which may affect ...

Upcycling Keratin‐Based Textile Waste Into High‐Performance Hybrid Fibers Via Tuning the Interfacial Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Keratin recovered from animal‐hair textile waste is fractionated and blended with cellulose to produce continuously spun hybrid fibers. Selecting the high‐molecular‐weight keratin fraction enables 30 wt.% keratin incorporation while maintaining high strength in dry and wet states.
