Recent research recognized that the slope of 18% can be used to distinguish between ‘gentle slope’ case and ‘steep for detected differences in hydraulic variables (flow depth, velocity, Reynolds number, Froude number) those representatives sediment transport capacity, actual load). In this paper, using previous measurements carried out mobile bed rills flume experiments characterized by steep s...

this paper presents a simplified approach to estimate the resultant force, which should be provided by a retention system, for the equilibrium of unstable slopes. the results were obtained with a developed algorithm, based on limit equilibrium analyses, that assumes a two-part wedge failure mechanism. design charts to obtain equivalent earth pressure coefficients are presented. based on the res...

Dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC) are associated with soil erosion, yet there is a shortage of research concerning the relationship between soil erosion, SOC, and especially microbial biomass carbon (MBC). In this paper, we selected two typical slope landscapes including gentle and steep slopes from the Sichuan Basin, China, and used the (137)Cs technique to determine the effects of water e...

Today's circuit technology requires low-power transistors and diodes to extend Moore's law. While research has been focused on reducing power consumption of transistors, have not widely studied. Here, we report a low-power, thus steep-slope Schottky diode, with “cold metal” source. The barrier between metal electrode bulk MoS 2 enabled the diode behavior, IV curve originated from change in dens...
