Improved Green-Ampt infiltration model of soil slope considering inclination

Shuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2020
In view of the fact that the traditional Green-Ampt infiltration model ignores the influence of slope angle and unsaturated zone of soil on the rainfall infiltration of slope, the gradient of infiltration potential energy of soil was modified by using ...

Further Evidences for the Sulfur Spillover on Carbon: Thermodynamic Aspects and Effects on Li-S Solid-State Batteries. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
ABSTRACT This study investigates sulfur spillover, the spontaneous and rapid spread of sulfur over carbon surfaces at ambient temperature. The process is studied by small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS), X‐ray radiography, and microcalorimetry from which a number of physicochemical properties are derived.
