Abstract | Concurrence that by accounting for momentum, the Eq. [8] may more accurately reflect the energy transmitted from the sliding hammer to the penetrometer described in Herrick and Jones (2002). We also agree that their new estimate of the resistance (Eq.[9]) remains "an experiemental measurement wich does not give a unique soil property; rather it is a complex measure which depend on both the penetrometer and the soil condition (Minasny and McBratnew, 2005). http://soil.scijournals.org/cgi/reprint/69/3/925?maxtoshow=&HITS=10&hits=10&RESULTFORMAT=&andorexacttitle=and&andorexacttitleabs=and&andorexactfulltext=and&searchid=1&FIRSTINDEX=0&sortspec=relevance&volume=69&firstpage=925&resourcetype=HWCIT |
