Since the establishment of blown sand physics, surface roughness has been widely used in current research to indicate the ability of a surface to resist wind erosion and to evaluate the windproof effect of protective measures. However, since the calc...
To address the complex dynamic mechanisms and lack of static operation data in trench-digging for transverse planting of Salix psammophila sand barriers, a transverse trench-digging device was designed. Based on the discrete element method, the Hertz...
The degradation of Salix psammophila mechanical sand barriers in desert environments can lead to a reduction in their windbreak and sand-fixing benefits, thereby becoming a significant factor limiting the operational lifespan of these structures. Tar...
With the increase in setting years in deserts, Salix psammophila sand barriers with different degrees of lodging damage caused by decay are losing wind-prevention and sand-fixation properties. In this study, we focus on the change in chemical propert...
Traditional sand fixation measures have many limitations. For example, engineering sand fixation measures using barriers cannot completely stabilize sand dunes. Biological sand fixation measures utilizing planted vegetation are very difficult to buil...
