Effectiveness of impermeable barriers for retardation of pollutant migration /
(1983)
This paper presents the results of the analysis of the movement of contaminated ground water under or through an imperfect barrier. The first phase of the analysis consists of the development of an analytical solution for ...
Water reuse potential in the Valley of Mexico and design of a general methodology for the selection of the best water reuse alternative /
(1983)
The Valley of Mexico, as well as many other regions in the world, is experiencing acute water shortages mainly due to population explosion, industrial development, and limited water resources. The major objectives of this ...
A management information system for accident prevention in a land-based oil-well drilling industry /
(1983)
Land-based oil-well drilling, a high-hazard industry needs to have a better model for accident prevention if their accident rates are to be reduced. The purpose of this dissertation is to develop a Management Information ...
Failure mechanisms of buried pipelines under fault movement and soil liquefaction /
(1983)
A simplified pipe model on a time dependent elastic foundation is proposed to stimulate a liquefaction situation of a liquefiable zone during earthquakes and the finite difference technique coupled with a time-increment ...
An investigation of the presence and mobility of pollutants at sites used for land treatment of oily residues /
(1983)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the conditions which exist at sites used for the land treatment of oily residues, after closure. Three sites, which had closed for different periods of time were selected and the ...
A mathematical model and integrated simulation for urban flood and land use analysis /
(1983)
A mathematical model for estimating potential urban flood damages was developed. Model parameters and variables were determined and verified by statistical analyses. HEC-1 and HEC-2 programs were used to simulate the ...
