  2. Physical properties of soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_properties_of_soil

    Soil bulk density is equal to the dry mass of the soil divided by the volume of the soil; i.e., it includes air space and organic materials of the soil volume. Thereby soil bulk density is always less than soil particle density and is a good indicator of soil compaction. [47]

  3. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    In materials science, bulk density, also called apparent density, is a material property defined as the mass of the many particles of the material divided by the bulk volume. Bulk volume is defined as the total volume the particles occupy, including particle's own volume, inter-particle void volume, and the particles' internal pore volume.

  4. Pore space in soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pore_space_in_soil

    The density of quartz is around 2.65 g/cm 3 but the dry bulk density of a soil can be less than half that value. Most soils have a dry bulk density between 1.0 and 1.6 g/cm 3 but organic soil and some porous clays may have a dry bulk density well below 1 g/cm 3 .

  5. Porosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porosity

    Aggregation involves particulate adhesion and higher resistance to compaction. Typical bulk density of sandy soil is between 1.5 and 1.7 g/cm 3. This calculates to a porosity between 0.43 and 0.36. Typical bulk density of clay soil is between 1.1 and 1.3 g/cm 3. This calculates to a porosity between 0.58 and 0.51.

  6. Density (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_(disambiguation)

    Density, mass per unit volume Bulk density, mass of a particulate solid or powder divided by the volume it occupies; Particle density (packed density) or true density, density of the particles that make up a particulate solid or a powder; Neutral density, mass density of seawater; Area density or surface density, mass over a (two-dimensional) area

  7. Particle mass density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_mass_density

    The particle mass density or particle density of a material (such as particulate solid or powder) is the mass density of the particles that make up the powder. Particle density is in contrast to the bulk density, which measures the average density of a large volume of the powder in a specific medium (usually air).

    The report notes that 11.2 million older adults spent over 30% of their income on housing in 2021, and only 36.5% of eligible households received federal housing assistance.

  9. Gassmann's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gassmann's_equation

    Gassmann's equations are a set of two equations describing the isotropic elastic constants of an ensemble consisting of an isotropic, homogeneous porous medium with a fully connected pore space, saturated by a compressible fluid at pressure equilibrium.
