A STUDY ON UNSATURATED SOIL-GEOTEXTILE INTERFACE STRENGTH USING MULTI-SCALE LABORATORY TESTS
(2014-12-12)
The performance of marginal soils and their interface with geosynthetic reinforcement can be complex under construction or service loading conditions and may include excessive deformations and loss of strength as a result ...
AN INVESTIGATION OF SUSTAINABLE FLUORIDE WATER TREATMENT TECHNOLOGIES WITH A FOCUS ON ETHIOPIA
(2014)
Human consumption of unsafe drinking water from an unimproved source is a global issue affecting approximately 748 million people worldwide. While this number has been decreasing in recent years, an additional 1.2 billion ...
Quantifying the Impact of Experimental Factors on the Measurement of Dynamic Capillary Effects in Unsaturated Porous Media
(2014-12-12)
Multiphase flow is an important phenomenon in many natural and engineering systems; for example, oil recovery and water movement in the unsaturated zone are two common multiphase flow systems. The capillary pressure-saturation ...
APPLICATION OF ECOSYSTEM ENERGETIC INDICATORS FOR THE VALUATION OF ECOSYSTEM SERVICES AND HEALTH
(2014)
Ecosystems services are benefits that humans receive from ecosystem functions. Ecosystem health is a term that is commonly used in the literature to describe the state of an ecosystem. Ecologists and economists have stated ...
