Soil Pore Network Complexity Changes Induced by Wetting and Drying Cycles-A Study Using X-ray Microtomography and 3D Multifractal Analyses. [PDF]
Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2022 Soils are dynamic and complex systems in their natural state, which are subjected to profound changes due to management. Additionally, agricultural soils are continuously exposed to wetting and drying (W-D) cycles, which can cause modifications in the ...

Deterioration of the Internal Structure of Loess under Dry‐Wet Cycles [PDF]
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 To understand the structural damage evolution process of loess under the action of dry‐wet cycles, a triaxial test of a dry‐wet cycle was performed by considering three influencing factors: initial moisture content, amplitude of the dry‐wet cycle, and number of dry‐wet cycles.
