PM10 emission efficiency for agricultural soils: Comparing a wind tunnel, a dust generator, and the open-air plot
(Elsevier, 2018-06)
The PM10 emission efficiency of soils has been determined through different methods. Although these methods imply important physical differences, their outputs have never been compared. In the present study the PM10 emission ...
PM10 emission, sandblasting efficiency and vertical entrainment during successive wind-erosion events: a wind-tunnel approach
(Springer, 2016-11)
A wind-tunnel experiment was carried out to measure saltation and PM10 (particulate matter with a mean aerodynamic diameter less than 10
μ
μ
m) emission during three successive wind-erosion events on three different ...
Wind tunnel study of plume dispersion with varying source emission configurations
(Techno-Press, 2018-09)
The concentration fields in the proximities of a local gas emission source are experimentally analyzed in several combinations of wind incidences and source emissions. These conditions are determined by the plume buoyancy, ...
Elemental composition of wind-blown sediments from contrasting textured soils
(Elsevier Science, 2021-01)
Wind eroded sediment is sorted by height by both size and density. Less information is available about the elemental composition and enrichment ratios of these sediments. Because of that, the concentration of elements in ...
Relative soil water content as a factor for wind erodibility in soils with different texture and aggregation
(Elsevier, 2019-02)
The soil water content is one of the main factors influencing the beginning of soil particle movement by the wind. Although, some authors studied the effect of soil water content on threshold wind velocity and have defined ...
Pressures on open canopy structures with parapets under wind loading

PM10 emission efficiency for agricultural soils: Comparing a wind tunnel, a dust generator, and the open-air plot
(Elsevier, 2018)
The PM10 emission efficiency of soils has been determined through different methods. Although these methods
imply important physical differences, their outputs have never been compared. In the present study the PM10
emission ...
Distribution and use of burrows and tunnels of Chaetophractus villosus (Mammalia, Xenarthra) in the eastern Argentinean pampas
(Springer, 2005-03)
Burrows and tunnels built by Chaetophractus villosus (Desmarest, 1804) (hairy armadillo) were studied in a farming area located in the Argentinean pampas, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Fifty-six structures were selected ...
Wind farm interference and terrain interaction simulation by means of an adaptive actuator disc
(Elsevier Science, 2019-03)
Wind turbine wake interference is a relevant phenomenon that involves speed losses and turbulence increments which greatly affect downstream turbines, and power efficiency of wind farms. To precisely simulate wake interaction, ...
