Experimental Study on Wind Erosion of Concrete Building Surface in Wind-Sand Environment [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 In this paper, the effects of different wind-sand attack angle, wind speed, action time, concrete strength, sand particle size, and sand content on the surface wind erosion of concrete structures are experimentally studied. Wind erosion rate and strength

Renewable Energy, 2020 Abstract Our motivation for investigating the rain and wind climate in the Danish Seas is recent news on leading edge erosion on wind turbine blades at several offshore wind farms. The costs related to turbine blade repair are high. In this study we investigate the rain and wind climate at five coastal and three inland weather stations in Denmark ...

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2019 Mulching is known as one of the fastest strategies to control wind erosion and sand dunes movement. We hypothesized that mixed micro silica with clay, gypsum and clay-gypsum as mulches will increase shear strength, threshold friction velocity and decrease soil losses of drifting sands.

Leading Edge Erosion of Wind Turbine Blades: Effects of Environmental Parameters on Impact Velocities and Erosion Damage Rate [PDF]
Volume 9: Ocean Renewable Energy, 2020 Abstract Leading edge erosion (LEE) of a wind turbine blade (WTB) is a complex phenomenon that contributes to high operation and maintenance costs. The impact between rain droplets and rotating blades exerts cyclic fatigue stresses on the leading edge — causing progressive material loss and reduced aerodynamic performance.

The effect of fluctuations in moisture on resistance to soil erosion in the process of dust production (Case study of Lake Bazangan , Iran) [PDF]
علوم و مهندسی آبیاری, 2020 The drying of lakes and wetlands is a significant challenge to the hydrological cycle of resources, to human life, and to animal and plant species. The bed soils of lakes in arid and semi-arid regions become dry and wet due to various factors, such as ...

The Age and Erosion Rate of Young Sedimentary Rock on Mars [PDF]
The Planetary Science Journal, 2021 The Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF) is an enigmatic sedimentary unit near the equator of Mars, with an uncertain formation process and absolute age. Due to the heavily wind-eroded surface, it is difficult to determine the absolute model age of the MFF ...
