Functionally, the methods for addressing contamination must remove and/or reduce transport or toxicity of contaminants. This problem is particularly challenging in arid environments where the vadose zone can be up to hundreds of feet thick, rendering transitional excavation methods exceedingly costly and ineffective. Delivery of remedial amendments is one of the most challenging and critical as...

the relations of fibrolite-biotite are discussed by presenting data from the ardara aureole, nw ireland. biotite-fibrolite intergrowths are developed in all three aureole zones including: the outer kyanite-bearing andalusite zone, the middle kyanite-free andalusite zone and the inner prismatic sillimanite zone. a strain-assisted mechanism is proposed for the fibrolitisation of biotite in the ar...

open-channel junctions have a broad application in civil and environmental engineering. formation of a low-pressure zone with recirculating flow (high sedimentation) accompanied by a high-velocity zone (high erosion) is the most characteristic feature of flow in junctions. a large number of researches have been performed to study the complexity of the flow in junctions in open-channel flows. in...

Groundwater samples contaminated with potentially toxic elements (PTE), including metals and nitrate ions, were collected at a depth of 8–10 m from the Siberian Chemical Plant multicomponent waste storage. The possibility developing permeable biogeochemical barrier zeolite lightweight expanded clay aggregate (LECA) was investigated. mass fraction properties several (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, ...

in view of the rapid expansion of contact lens amongst the users, new dimensions have been added to the domain of ophthalmology: giant papillay conjunctivitis, a disease caused by different kinds of contact lens, appears weeks or months after they are used, although some patients are struck years later. the predominant symptoms are increased awareness of lenses, ocular itching, blurred vision a...

A fundamental study was carried out on the high-temperature zone flow resistance during iron ore sintering. In present work, firstly, quartz sand was used to replace iron ores to investigate the impact of temperature if bed structure has no change; then a three-layer bed structure was used to explore the primary factors controlling high-temperature zone structure for airflow. The zone where tem...

[1] Pore pressure changes are rigorously included in Coulomb stress calculations for fault interaction studies. These are considered changes under undrained conditions for analyzing very short term postseismic response. The assumption that pore pressure is proportional to faultnormal stress leads to the widely used concept of an effective friction coefficient. We provide an exact expression for...

INTRODUCTION The objective of this study is to provide a synthesis of the pertinent design criteria for submerged bendway weirs. The technical paper is an extension of previous research conducted by the National Center for Computational Hydroscience and Engineering (NCCHE) at the University of Mississippi on the hydrodynamic effects on flow characteristics and effectiveness of submerged bendway...
