PERFORMANCE OF DIFFERENT ANT-BASED ALGORITHMS FOR OPTIMIZATION OF MIXED VARIABLE DOMAIN IN CIVIL ENGINEERING DESIGNS
Ant colony optimization algorithms (ACOs) have been basically introduced to discrete variable problems and applied to different research domains in several engineering fields. Meanwhile, abundant studies have been already involved to adapt different ant models to continuous search spaces. Assessments indicate competitive performance of ACOs on discrete or continuous domains. Therefore, as poten...
متن کاملSelenium Removal from Agricultural Drainage Water: Lab Scale Studies
This report is an evaluation of the selenium removal from agricultural drainage water and synthetic solutions contaminated with high amounts of selenium. Batch and kinetic studies were conducted on the removal of selenium and the effectiveness of various remediation materials was determined. The agricultural drainage water samples were obtained from San Joaquin Valley and provided by Department...
متن کاملHydrological variability and agricultural drainage ditch inorganic nitrogen reduction capacity.
The application of inorganic nitrogen fertilizers on agricultural landscapes has the potential to generate concerns of environmental degradation at fine to coarse scales across the catchment and landscape. Inorganic nitrogen species (NO3*, NO2*, and NH3) are typically associated with subsurface flow processes; however, surface runoff from rainfall events in no-till agriculture with inorganic su...
متن کاملA conceptual evaluation of sustainable variable-rate agricultural residue removal.
Agricultural residues have near-term potential as a feedstock for bioenergy production, but their removal must be managed carefully to maintain soil health and productivity. Recent studies have shown that subfield scale variability in soil properties (e.g., slope, texture, and organic matter content) that affect grain yield significantly affect the amount of residue that can be sustainably remo...
متن کاملEscherichia coli Removal in Biochar-Modified Biofilters: Effects of Biofilm
The presence of microbial contaminants in urban stormwater is a significant concern for public health; however, their removal by traditional stormwater biofilters has been reported as inconsistent and inadequate. Recent work has explored the use of biochar to improve performance of stormwater biofilters under simplified conditions that do not consider potential effects of biofilm development on...
