What we have learnt
- Compressibility characteristics are critical for understanding material behavior under varying pressures.
- The swelling index (C) is an important measure in assessing the compressibility of materials.
- Material properties can significantly impact engineering decisions, particularly in resource extraction and infrastructure development.
Key Concepts
-
Term: Compressibility
Definition: The measure of how much a substance can be compressed under pressure.
-
Term: Swelling Index (C)
Definition: A parameter that quantifies the change in volume of a material when subjected to moisture or pressure conditions.
