Combined effects of salt, cyclic wetting and drying cycles on the physical and mechanical properties of sandstone

Engineering Geology, 2019
Salt weathering has considerable effects, and it has recently become the subject of interest among researchers and engineers, especially in terms of sandstone heritage buildings and sandstone monuments.

Initial microaggregate formation: Association of microorganisms to montmorillonite-goethite aggregates under wetting and drying cycles

Geoderma, 2019
There is an intimate relationship between microorganisms and the formation and stability of soil microaggregates, realized by the immobilization and occlusion of microorganisms.

Modelling of Wetting and Drying Cycles in Building Structures

2014
Many buildings are frequently subjected to deterioration caused by dampness, whose effects can be amplified by structure material properties, and microclimatic conditions. This contribution proposes a quantitative model to perform a physical analysis of rising damp.

Interior Humidity of Concrete under Dry-Wet Cycles

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2012
The dry-wet cycle is one of the aggressive environmental conditions suffered by concrete. This paper focuses on the experimental study and theoretical simulation of water distribution in normal- and high-strength concrete through dry-wet cycles. The experimental results show that under dry-wet cycles, the variation in the interior humidity of concrete ...

On the hydro-mechanical behaviour of a lime-treated embankment during wetting and drying cycles

Geomechanics for Energy and the Environment, 2017
The paper presents some experimental results obtained on samples extracted from a full-scale embankment obtained by compacting a lime-treated clayey soil.

Denitrification Hysteresis During Wetting and Drying Cycles in Soil

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1988
Abstract Denitrification response to soil moisture was studied in soils undergoing either wetting or drying cycles to determine if denitrification‐soil water relationships were independent of antecedent moisture conditions. Intact, field moist soil cores were brought into the laboratory and subjected to either wetting or drying phase ...
