scholarly journals Improvement of Rheological Properties of Soil Structure Based on Lignite Dispersion

This article examines the change in stress and strain media, in particular natural leonardite (brown coal), prepared for grinding and during grinding, due to the restructuring of the material, i.e. changes in the relative position and deformation of the elements of the structure, including at the level of macromolecules that are inert to the deformation and relaxation processes, provide important for the technology to use improved rheological properties of the soil structure based on dispersion of leonardite, information about the physical properties of the material and its structure. The time variation of the stress in an inert-viscous-elastic medium with a constant strain rate depending on the values of the rheological parameters, it is possible to occur by three laws: aperiodic (steady), critical and oscillatory damp

The study aims to investigate changes in the physical properties of soil depending on the utilization conditions of the Special Protected National Park compared to the area fenced for more than 10 years. The stability and stabilization of the stabilized mountain meadow soil stabilization and physical properties of soil in the Gorkhi-Terelj National Park (GTNP) resort and limited concentration of tourism. As a result of the study, the stability of the soil structure was 2.8 points in the area of vegetation cover 0-3 cm outside the fence, while the 2.6 layered soil layers above the soils of the vegetation cover. However, the area with vegetation cover within the fence is 4.2 points in soil 0-3 cm and 4 leaves in soil without vegetation cover.

Abstract Effects of two independent variables - the content of quercetin (0 or 1 or 1.5 or 5 %) and the content of plasma (0 or 2 or 4 or 6 %) - on the organoleptic properties and rheological parameters of model formulations prepared on an amphiphilic base were estimated. The consistency of all ointments was uniform, and the content of quercetin and plasma lay within the predefined range. Tested ointments are non-Newtonian systems. The content of quercetin and plasma was found to have a significant effect on the rheological properties of the ointments. An increase in the content of plasma in ointments was accompanied by a significant increase in their hardness, viscosity and shear stress and a reduction of their spreadability. The best rheological properties were shown by formulation F-3, containing 1.5 % of quercetin and 2 % of plasma.

Physical properties of soil have been measured on two experimental plots which showed high compaction and poor germination of wheat under very wet conditions. The plot treatments were a two-course and a four-course rotation, and formed part of a permanent rotation trial at the Waite Institute. Similar physical properties were measured for thick crusts formed on these cultivated soils. Under the wet conditions pore space available for air was low in both plots, and within the crust itself was almost zero. Significant differences were found in bulk density and water-stable aggregation between treatments. Waterstable aggregation was very low under both treatments compared with that in virgin soil. All physical measurements point to an oxygen deficiency for a period of 2-3 weeks, and this could account for the poor germination and poor early growth, particularly in the two-course rotation plots. The bad structure conditions leading to this are probably due to pulverizing by implements and dispersion over the years by heavy rain, rather than to decrease in organic matter.

One of the main objectives of crop establishment is adjustment of physical properties of soil, on which indicators of soil fertility as well as economic appreciation of the resulting yield depend. During 2014–2016 yield of corn and sorghum was observed in semi‑operational experiments of ZD Budišov in relation to the quantity of the applied digestate and simultaneously, the following physical properties of soil were analysed: porosity, compaction and soil structure. After the application of digestate the porosity and minimal air capacity decreased, and reduced bulk density increased. Soil structure was affected negatively too. Overall, a trend of degradation of physical state of soil in variant with doubled dose of applied digestate was registered. Yields were always higher in variants with digestate due to a higher supply of higher amount of nutrients. Results of this observation indicate that crop yields may be higher but at the same time physical properties of soil may be impaired which may, while increasing doses of digestate, lead to irreversible degradation of soil.

AbstractSubmarine debris flows are mass movement processes on the seafloor, and are geohazards for seafloor infrastructure such as pipelines, communication cables, and submarine structures. Understanding the generation and run-out behavior of submarine debris flows is thus critical for assessing the risk of such geohazards. The rheological properties of seafloor sediments are governed by factors including sediment composition, grain size, water content, and physico-chemical conditions. In addition, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) generated by microorganisms can affect rheological properties in natural systems. Here we show that a small quantity of EPS (~ 0.1 wt%) can potentially increase slope stability and decrease the mobility of submarine debris flows by increasing the internal cohesion of seafloor sediment. Our experiments demonstrated that the flow behavior of sediment suspensions mixed with an analogue material of EPS (xanthan gum) can be described by a Herschel–Bulkley model, with the rheological parameters being modified progressively, but not monotonously, with increasing EPS content. Numerical modeling of debris flows demonstrated that the run-out distance markedly decreases if even 0.1 wt% of EPS is added. The addition of EPS can also enhance the resistivity of sediment to fluidization triggered by cyclic loading, by means of formation of an EPS network that binds sediment particles. These findings suggest that the presence of EPS in natural environments reduces the likelihood of submarine geohazards.

The author lays before the Society the results of experiments extending over a period of ten years on the effects of stress and strain on the magnetic permeabilities of iron, nickel, and cobalt. Two methods were employed. In one the metal to be tested—usually in the form of wire—was placed with its axis coincident with that of a magnetising solenoid, in most cases of considerable length as compared with the diameter of the wire; round the central portion of the solenoid was wrapped a secondary coil .
