EFFECT OF WETTING AND DRYING CYCLES ON ADDED POTASSIUM RELEASE TO SOME CALCAREOUS SOILS IN NORTH IRAQ [PDF]

open access: yesMesopotamia Journal of Agriculture, 2010
Two surfaces soils horizon from calcareous soils in Mosul city classified as calciorthid with semictite dominance were chosen to study the effect of wetting and drying cycles on release of native and added potassium.Potassium was added to soil samples at

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

open access: yesAdvances 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 ...

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

open access: yesGeofluids, 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 ...
