Movement of water in compacted bentonite and its relation with swelling pressure
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A testing procedure was proposed to study water movement in compacted bentonite and the development of swelling pressure (p s ) when compacted bentonite specimens were wetted. In this procedure, a multi-ring mold was introduced for p s measurements, after which the specimen was sliced for X-ray diffraction to find movement of water in the interlayer space of montmorillonite. Results revealed a relation between four phases of p s development and evolution of four states of interlayer water molecule arrangement of montmorillonite (L): when p s reached its first peak in phase I, L moved from 1 row water arrangement (1w) to at least 2w; when p s decreased and re-increased in phases II or III, L moved from 2w to at least 3w; and when p s reached a steady state in phase IV, L = 3w. The w distribution in the compacted bentonite was also measured as water absorption time increased. Based on those results, the global water movement was estimated in terms of diffusivity (D) following a method employing Boltzmann transform. Results of comparisons implied that D calculated using this method matched experimental data well and the method was rather easily handled.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
