Description :
Here, the AA. present a method of investigating the stability and comminution of soil aggregates by simultaneously modeling the redistribution of particles throughout any arbitrarily-selected set of soil-particle size intervals as ultrasonic energy is applied to a soil-water suspension. Following model development, they demonstrate its application to 5 particle-size subgroups. Both the flexibility of the proposed model and the extension of ultrasonic stability assessment to simultaneous analysis of both microaggregate and macroaggregate subgroups can facilitate broader application of ultrasonic methods to soil processes related research.
