The first describes the data currently available at different frequencies, from X-rays to UV, optical, infrared and radio millimetric and centimetric, while explaining their physical meaning. In the second section, the author explains how these data can be used to determine physical parameters and quantities, such as mass and temperature. The final section is devoted to describing how the derived quantities can be used in a multifrequency analysis to studyGalaxiesRadio astronomyRadio galaxiesObservationsElectronic books.Galaxies.Radio astronomy.Radio galaxies523.112Boselli Alessandro1965-721505MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910141337203321A panchromatic view of galaxies2250784UNINA05772oam 2200769I 450 991095864060332120240313201951.09781135037710113503771X9780203771075020377107910.1201/b14393 (CKB)2670000000352949(EBL)1177206(SSID)ssj0000885235(PQKBManifestationID)11468006(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000885235(PQKBWorkID)10948495(PQKB)10687096(OCoLC)846954270(Au-PeEL)EBL1177206(CaPaEBR)ebr10691554(CaONFJC)MIL501726(OCoLC)843637641(FINmELB)ELB131700(MiAaPQ)EBC1177206(EXLCZ)99267000000035294920180420d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAdvances in unsaturated soils /editor, Bernardo Caicedo ; co-editors, Carol Murillo, Laureano Hoyos, Julio Esteban Colmenares, Ivan Rafael Berdugo1st ed.Boca Raton, Fla. :CRC Press,2013.1 online resource (610 p.)Proceedings of the first Pan-American conference on unsaturated soils, Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, 20-22 February 2013.9780429212703 0429212704 9780415620956 0415620953 Includes bibliographical references.Front Cover; Table of contents; Preface; Organization committees; Acknowledgements; Sponsors; Keynotes lectures; Interactions between atmosphere and geosphere-difficulties in measuring evaporation; Interpretation of soil-water characteristic curves when volume change occurs as soil suction is changed; Ventilation effects in an argillaceous rock tunnel examined via unsaturated soil mechanics; Compacted soils: From physics to hydraulic and mechanical behaviour; Rockfill mechanics; Unsaturated soil mechanics in the design and performance of pavementsEstimation of the 1-D heave of a natural expansive soil deposit with a light structure using the modulus of elasticity based methodAdvances in testing techniques; Physical modelling of the effect of partial saturation on the stability of geocell walls; Calibration in the laboratory of capacitance sensors for water content monitoring; Unsaturated soil response under plane strain conditions via true triaxial testing; Measuring water retention properties of a series of bentonite clays in a wide range of suctions; Physical modeling of the mechanical improvement of unsaturated silt through heatingTriaxial cell for nonisothermal shear strength of compacted silt under high suction magnitudesMeasurement of friction on piles over neutral plane in expansive soils; On the use of unsaturated properties of a sandy material for centrifuge model preparation; Application of electrical resistivity for the control of water content and density in loess; A method for making a homogeneous specimen of unsaturated clay using micro-wave; Centrifuge modelling of wetting-induced collapse in embankment base; A practical method for suction estimation in unsaturated soil testingPreparing unsaturated samples of decomposed granite for laboratory controlled CPTsEstimating soil hydraulic parameters from capillary rise tests; Geophysical investigation of cracking in unsaturated soils; Unsaturated soil behavior: Water retention behavior and hydraulic properties; Preferential flow and mass transport modeling in a heterogeneous unsaturated soil; Influence of cracks on soil water characteristic curve; Influence of suction on the permeability of unsaturated soils; Evaluation of the suction calibration curves for Whatman 42 filter paperSoil water characteristic curves of lime-treated highly expansive soilsWater retention properties of a demolition waste; Water infiltration in final cover layer of landfills in northeast region of Brazil; Water retention properties of a residual soil from Caracas; Air permeability of cover soil from the Bandeirantes landfill in S©o Paulo, Brazil; Water retention curves for a tropical soil contaminated by vinasse; Permeability studies with blend of fly Ash and Rice Husk Ash stabilized soil subgrade; Capillary rise in pores with rough walls; Volumetric and elastic behaviorMulti-dimensional swelling behavior of Al-Qatif expansive soilsNew theories and testing techniques related with Unsaturated Soil Mechanics have proven to be valuable tools to study a broad spectrum of geo-materials which includes rocks, rock fills, frozen soils and domiciliary solid wastes. These new theories and testing techniques have permitted the analysis of several traditional problems from a new perspective (e.g., swelling or collapsible soils and compacted soils or pavements materials), and they have also shown their efficiency to study new energy-related problems like CO2 sequestration and nuclear waste disposal.
