Several structures are built on collapsible soils in the mining and petroleum industries civil sites. In order to analyze stability of such structures, one must properly study unsaturated soil behavior. Collapsible frequent sand that susceptible a significant sudden reduction volume upon wetting. An important factor is matric suction, which es related moisture content through water Characterist...

Considerando la predominancia del sentido vertical en los flujos de intercambio entre componentes hidrológicos sistemas llanura y, consecuentemente, preponderancia evapotranspiración como proceso, se presenta una adaptación metodología propuesta por FAO a las variables empleadas el modelo hidrológico SHALL, apto para simulación continua áreas llanura. El es hidrodinámico cuasi-3D, que contempla...

Original crystal structures of even–even polyamides are introduced. They based on twisted conformations at the amide-aliphatic part links and reminiscent pleated rippled protein sheet introduced by Pauling Corey in early 1950s. Pleated sheets chiral, made two conformational isomers. have specific X-ray diffraction “profiles”. Publications describe such profiles, indicating that both variants ex...

A physical conceptual model for water retention in fractured rocks is derived while taking into account the effect of pore size distribution and tortuosity of capillaries. The formula of calculating relative hydraulic conductivity of fractured rock is given based on fractal theory. It is an issue to choose an appropriate capillary pressure-saturation curve in the research of unsaturated fractur...

structures, that lies beneath the rostral end of the nasal cavity, is thought to be the primary site for the detection of pheromones in mammals (Halpern, 1987; Wysocki & Meredith, 1987). Sensory transduction in the VNO is poorly understood, but is likely to be distinct from sensory transduction in the olfactory epithelium (Liman, 1996). In the olfactory epithelium, G protein-coupled receptors a...
