Permeability and Microstructure of a Saline Intact Loess after Dry‐Wet Cycles [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Influenced by both dry‐wet cycles and salt weathering, the loess will exhibit significant changes in microstructure and permeability, which threatens the stability of loess slopes. Triaxial permeability tests and industrial computed tomography (CT) scans were carried out on saline intact loess with sodium sulfate.

Wettability decay in an oil-contaminated waste-mineral mixture with dry-wet cycles [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Electrical resistivity evolution of compacted silty clay under drying−wetting cycles sequentially coupled with dynamic loads

open access: yesRock and Soil Mechanics, 2021
The performance evolution of subgrade soil under the coupling effect of drying?wetting cycle and dynamic load is essential for the safety and stability of the subgrade.

Reversible and irreversible dimensional changes of heat-treated wood during alternate wetting and drying [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Spruce wood specimens were heat-treated in saturated water vapor (steaming) and in the absence of moisture (dry heating) at 120–180 °C, and their wet volumes were measured during alternate wetting and drying cycles.

Delayed compression and breakage of crushed mudstones due to the drying/wetting and temperature cycles [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Soft sedimentary rocks, especially mudstones, disintegrated or crumbled when subjected to cyclic drying and wetting, known as slaking, which was the cause of severe slope failures and ground settlement.

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 ...

Effect of weathering on disintegration and shear strength reduction of clay shale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Frequent and strong atmosphere and hydrosphere reactions accelerate weathering of clay shale. This study was carried out to determine the effects of frequent natural drying and wetting-drying cycles on clay shales in every 8 days until the value of ...

Impact of Wetting–Drying Cycles on the Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of Wood Waste–Gypsum Composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Large amounts of wood waste are generated each year in the world. In an attempt to identify a good recovery option for those residues, wood waste from construction and demolition works were used as raw materials in gypsum plasters.
