Effect of drying-wetting cycles on triaxial compression mechanical properties of sandstone [PDF]
, 2016 To investigate the geological hazards caused by the action of drying-wetting cycle on rocks, we conducted a conventional triaxial compression test on sandstone under a high number of repeated drying-wetting cycles.

STUDY ON SOIL BEHAVIOR UNDER MULTIPLE WETTING AND DRYING CYCLES [PDF]
, 2019 During thermal seasonal variations, expansive soils may exhibit increase in volume upon wetting (swell) and decrease in volume during drying (shrinkage).

Aging of recycled aggregates mortars by drying-wetting cycles
Construction and Building Materials, 2021 ABSTRACT: Due to the large amount of CO2 emissions produced nowadays by the construction sector, the scientific community is looking for measures that will bring constructions to the be as environmental-friendly as possible. One of the most popular lines of research is the use of construction waste as recycled aggregates for the production of recycled ...

Effect of Dry–Wet Cycling on Methanotrophs in Wetland Soils
BiologyWetlands occupy a mere 6% of Earth’s land surface, yet they contribute 25–45% of global natural methane (CH4) emissions. A key contradiction emerges here: it is the soil of these wetlands that serves as the host for methane-trophic microorganisms, which can oxidize the vast majority of the methane they produce under specific conditions (for example ...

Uranium storage mechanisms in wet-dry redox cycled sediments
Water Research, 2019 Biogeochemical redox processes that govern radionuclide mobility in sediments are highly sensitive to forcing by the water cycle. For example, episodic draining and intrusion of oxidants into reduced zones during dry seasons can create biogeochemical seasonal hotspots of enhanced and changed microbial activity, affect the redox status of minerals ...

Nonequilibrium Wet–Dry Cycling Acts as a Catalyst for Chemical Reactions
The Journal of Physical Chemistry BRecent experimental studies suggest that wet-dry cycles and coexisting phases can each strongly alter chemical processes. The mechanisms of why and to which degree chemical processes are altered when subject to evaporation and condensation are unclear. To close this gap, we developed a theoretical framework for non-dilute chemical reactions subject to ...
