Effect of wetting-drying cycles on soil desiccation cracking behaviour

E3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Better understanding the desiccation cracking process is essential in analysing drought effects on soil hydraulic and mechanical properties through consideration of the atmosphere-ground interaction.

Experimental Study on the Triaxial Compression Properties of Coarse-Grained Filling Soil under Drying–Wetting Cycles

Geofluids, 2022
To explore the mechanical properties of coarse-grained filling soil in the hydrofluctuation belt of the Baihetan reservoir, a fast drying–wetting cycle method for large-scale triaxial tests was developed and a series of large-scale triaxial compression ...

Damage Features of Altered Rock Subjected to Drying-Wetting Cycles

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2018
An abandoned open pit was used as a tailing pond for a concentrating mill, with the height of the water surface subject to cyclic fluctuation. The effects of drying and wetting cycles on the mechanical parameters of pit rock were tested.

Pengaruh Drying dan Wetting Cycle Terhadap Kuat Geser Tanah Lempung [PDF]

, 2022
 The landslide that occurred in Pagar Alam City was caused by high rainfall and the dry wet cycle was also one of the causes of the weakening of the mechanical properties of clay soil in the area, causing avalanches.

Alternate wetting and drying irrigation for rice in Bangladesh: Is it sustainable and has plant breeding something to offer? [PDF]

, 2013
The crop management practice of alternate wetting and drying (AWD) is being promoted by IRRI and the national research and extension program in Bangladesh and other parts of the world as a water-saving irrigation practice that reduces the environmental ...

The numerical simulation of thin film flow over heterogeneous substrates [PDF]

, 2003
Considerable progress in the understanding of thin film flow over surfaces has been achieved thanks to lubrication theory which enables the governing Navier-Stokes equations to be reduced to a more tractable form, namely a coupled set of partial ...

Shear Strength Deterioration of Compacted Residual Soils under a Wind Turbine due to Drying-Wetting Cycles and Vibrations

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021
The soil beneath a wind turbine withstands not only environmental impacts but also continuous vibrations transmitted from the superstructure. This paper presents an experimental study of the deterioration characteristics of shear strengths of residual ...

Simultaneous wetting and drying; fluid bed granulation and tablet film coating [PDF]

, 2018
[EN] Simultaneous wetting and drying occur in processes such as fluid bed (top spray) granulation, Wurster coating and tablet film coating. This gives control challenges, as the spraying and evaporation processes must be carefully balanced and the ...
