Abstract:
Amounts of potassium (K) fixed in soil fractions of 10 calcareous soils of southern Iran were measured to evaluate the contributions of different soil size fractions to K fixation. Soil particles were fractionated after dispersion of the soils with an ultrasonic probe. Potassium fixation analysis was done by addition of 1000 mg K/kg samples. Mineralogy of the size fractions was determined by X-ray diffraction. The clay fractions were dominated by smectite, chlorite, mica, and palygorskite. Potassium fixation capacities ranged from 104 to 148 mg/kg for clay, from 102 to 155 mg/kg for s

Objectives : Soil washing process has been widely applied for remediation of contaminated soil with arsenic and heavy metals in Korea. The application of soil washing could change physical and chemical properties of soils and metal speciation in soil, which could affect the risk to the environment and human health. Thus, it is necessary to evaluate metal and arsenic speciation and their mobility in soil after soil remediation in order to evaluate effectiveness of soil remediation process and manage soil quality effectively.

Abstract:
The grain-size distribution is commonly used for soil classification; however, there is also potential to use the grain-size distribution as a basis for estimating soil behaviour. For example, much emphasis has recently been placed on the estimation of the soil-water characteristic curve. Many methods proposed in the literature use the grain-size distribution as a starting point to estimate the soil-water characteristic curve. Two mathematical forms are presented to represent grain-size distribution curves, namely, a unimodal form and a bimodal form. The proposed equations provide methods for

Abstract:
AbstractThe soil fabric can be expressed as a network model. Granular media voids connectivity and constriction size distribution may lead to movement of air, fluids, and solids in the soil, and therefore affect the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of soils. Understanding the soil voids areas and their interconnection might be helpful in understanding different phenomena such as transport in porous media, water retention, fluid flow in the soil, soil contamination, internal erosion, suffusion, and filtration. In addition, specifying the soil voids interconnectivity can help researchers and practical engineers to provide the best rehabilitation and remediation approaches. The pore network was investigated in the current study, assuming the soil particles to be similar to discrete spheres and particles with different shapes. Also, based on the modelling techniques, the profiles of pore connectivity and constriction size distribution were assessed.

Abstract:
AbstractKubiëna (1938) was the first to introduce the concept of fabric in soil micromorphology, so this term has been used in soil micromorphology for a long time. The term “fabric” was initially applied to rocks by geologists and petrologists. This type of fabric is defined as the “factor of the texture of a crystalline rock which depends on the relative sizes, the shapes, and the arrangement of the component crystals” (Matthews and Boyer 1976). This definition has been adapted for soil micromorphology and its latest definition has been given by Bullock et al. (1985) as: “soil fabric deals with the total organization of a soil, expressed by the spatial arrangement of the soil constituents (solid, liquid, and gaseous), their shape, size, and frequency, considered from a configurational, functional and genetic view-point”. In conclusion, the soil micromorphologist should consider the fabric as an arrangement and∕or organization of soil constituents.

This is the sieving test, the density test or the pipetting method. These methods are well known and widely used. The soil is then usually classified according to the triangular diagram.

Abstract:
Methods to quantify soil conditions of pore connectivity, tortuosity, and pore size as altered by compaction were done. Air-dry soil cores were scanned at the GeoSoilEnviroCARS sector at the Advanced Photon Source for x-ray computed microtomography of the Argonne facility. Data was collected on the APS bending magnet Sector 13. Soil sample cores 5- by 5-mm were studied. Skeletonization algorithms in the 3DMA-Rock software of Lindquist et al. were used to extract pore structure. We have numerically investigated the spatial distribution for 6 geometrical characteristics of the pore structure of

Abstract:
Tillage modifies soil structure, altering conditions for plant growth and transport processes through the soil. However, the resulting loose structure is unstable and susceptible to collapse due to aggregate fragmentation during wetting and drying cycles, and coalescense of moist aggregates by internal capillary forces and external compactive stresses. Presently, limited understanding of these complex processes often leads to consideration of the soil plow layer as a static porous medium. With the purpose of filling some of this knowledge gap, the objectives of this Project were to: 1) Identif

Abstract:
The project aims to develop a prototype device for determining the texture of soils and mineral deposits. The innovation of the designed solution consists in a significant reduction in the time of composition analysis with the possibility of any division into granulometric groups and the complete automation of the measurement from the moment the sample is introduced into the apparatus until the result is obtained. As part of the project, industrial research and experimental development are planned to be divided into the following stages: 1. Development of the measuring system. 2. Development o

Abstract:
This dataset examines the impact of charcoal and tree species on forest soil recovery post-fire, encompassing soil profile characteristics, particle size distribution (granulometry), and chemical properties. It includes measurements from eight variants, considering four tree species and two land preparation methods for regeneration: with and without charcoal removal. The methodology and study location are described in the publication.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper an isotropic hardening elastoplastic constitutive model for structured soils is applied to the simulation of a standard CPTu test in a saturated soft structured clay. To allow for the extreme deformations experienced by the soil during the penetration process, the model is formulated in a fully geometric non-linear setting, based on: i) the multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient into an elastic and a plastic part; and, ii) on the existence of a free energy function to define the elastic behaviour of the soil. The model is equipped with two bonding-related intern

Full text
Abstract:
When testing an 1:N geotechnical structure in the centrifuge, it is desirable to choose a large scale factor (N) that can fit the small-scale model in a model container and avoid unwanted boundary effects, however, this in turn may cause scale effects when the structure is overscaled. This is more significant when it comes to small-scale modelling of sinker root-soil interaction, where root-particle size ratio is much lower. In this study the Distinct Element Method (DEM) is used to investigate this problem. The sinker root of a model root system under axial loading was analysed, with both upw

Abstract:
Environmental cracking processes are caused by the synergistic interaction of a corrosive environment and applied service stress (mechanical contribution) with a susceptible pipeline material. Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is one form of environmental cracking. Current understanding of the processes associated with SCC suggests that cracks proceed through a continuum of events leading to final failure. In the "life" of a crack, cracks initiate, proceed through a period of growth, link with other cracks to produce a critical defect size that can then cause the failure of the pipeline. The rel
