This study investigates the nonlinear behavior of flow passing through 28 crack
topographies in concrete at various pressure gradients using water permeability test …

Silicic lavas can be produced by the sintering of pyroclasts in the volcanic sub-surface, and
then advected out of the vent. Here, we provide evidence for this mechanism preserved in …

The “architectural suitability” of scaffolds for bone tissue engineering is commonly evaluated
by assessing the pore volume and the mean pore size (or pore size distribution, if possible) …

Water permeability tests (WPTs) based on Darcy's law ignore inertial effect, yielding biased
assessments. This study examines self-healing effects on water resistances of cracked and …

We present an experimental investigation of surface tension–driven sintering and
associated densification of glassy rhyolitic ash and crystals under shallow volcanic conduit …

A tailored multifunctional diatomite-based foam with porosity and density gradients has been
developed through a new technology that enables an unprecedented integration of acoustic …

Porosity-related characteristics of biomedical three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds govern mass
transport properties which, in turn, dictate the success of implants in vivo. The accurate …

Understanding the influence of sedimentary processes on reservoir architectures can be
essential for improving the prediction of permeability heterogeneity. The Upper Rhine …

Abstract The Cracked Mountain edifice is a basaltic subglacial volcano (ie tuya) situated in
southwest British Columbia, Canada. The edifice is dominated by subaqueously deposited …

This Special Issue, titled “Porous Ceramics, Glasses and Composites, Volume II”, aims to
present an up-to-date overview of the synthesis/fabrication, characterization, and …
