Soils testing in the United States relies heavily on ASTM Standard Methods. If your new method offers significant improvement over the conventional "thread" method, then you may wish to propose it as a new Standard Method to the relevant ASTM committee. ASTM offers guidance in how to prepare the written portion of a standard method proposal on their website www.astm.org .
Some universities and/or employers may claim partial or whole ownership of patents developed with the use of their resources. You may want to check into this pror to applying for a patent.
