Effect of Wetting-Drying Cycles on Mechanical Behaviour and Electrical Resistivity of Unsaturated Subgrade Soil [PDF]
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019 Compacted soil is widely used in road and railway subgrade, while alternation of seasons can cause fluctuations in moisture content of soil (i.e., wetting-drying cycles) and influence the performance of soil.

The Journal of the American College of Certified Wound Specialists, 2009 Prior to the 1960s, clinicians commonly believed the perfect wound healing environment was dry and dressings simply plugged and concealed ulcers. However, research in recent decades has confirmed that a moist wound environment where dressings have the opportunity to interact with the wound helped promote healing and reduced the risk of pain and ...

Wettability decay in an oil-contaminated waste-mineral mixture with dry-wet cycles [PDF]
, 2015 The dependency of soil particle wettability on soil water content implies that soils subjected to drying-wetting cycles become wettable with wetting and water repellent with drying.
