• Engineering characterisation of estuarine silts 

  Long, Michael (Michael M.) (Geological Society of London, 2007-05)

  Guidance is provided for geotechnical engineers designing civil engineering works in silty soils. A detailed characterisation of two estuarine silt sites in Ireland is performed and the soil properties are linked to their ...
• The importance of laboratory water quality for studying initial bacterial adhesion during NF filtration processes 

  Correia-Semiao, Andrea Joana ; Habimana, O. ; Cao, H. ; Heffernan, R. ; Safari, Ashkan ; Casey, Eoin (Elsevier, 2013-05-15)

  Biofouling of nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membranes for water treatment has been the subject of increased research effort in recent years. A prerequisite for undertaking fundamental experimental investigation ...
• Forms, patterns and extractability of phosphorus retained in alum sludge used as substrate in laboratory-scale constructed wetland systems 

  Babatunde, A.O. ; Zhao, Y.Q. (Elsevier, 2009-10-01)

  This study examined the form, pattern and extractability of phosphorus (P) retained in alum sludge (an aluminium-containing drinking water treatment residual in dewatered cake form), which was used as substrate in laboratory ...
• Interpretation of In Situ and Laboratory Thermal Measurements Resulting in Accurate Thermogeological Characterisation 

  Hemmingway, Phil ; Long, Michael (Michael M.) (Taylor & Francis, 2012-09)

  Growing worldwide interest in the exploitation of geothermal energy resources has led to a scenario where the technology routinely forms part of building-scale renewable energy feasibility studies. A thorough understanding ...
• Phosphorus immobilization in Al-drinking water treatment sludge (Al-DWTS) and soil under laboratory conditions 

  Li, W.C. ; Zhao, Y.Q. (Taylor & Francis, 2010-10)

  This study assessed the potential reuse of an aluminium coagulated drinking–water treatment sludge (Al–DWTS) as a main substrate in constructed wetland to replace soil for the treatment of P-enriched wastewater. The ...
• Use of a downhole block sampler for very soft organic soils 

  Long, Michael (Michael M.) (ASTM International, 2006-09)

  Techniques required to successfully obtain downhole block samples of typical very soft high plasticity organic clay from Ireland are described. The vane shear strength of the material is as low as 4 kPa. These included ...
• Developing Geothermal Energy Research Capabilities at University College Dublin 

  Hemmingway, Phil ; Long, Michael (Michael M.) (Geothermal Association of Ireland, 2011)

  Ireland has one of the highest energy dependencies in Europe and as such must adapt quickly to increase renewable energy exploitation levels in order to secure its energy future. A mix of renewable energy technology types ...
• A comparative study between the NGI direct simple shear apparatus and the Mikasa direct shear apparatus 

  Hanzawa, Hideo ; Nutt, Nigel ; Lunne, Tom ; Tang, Y.X. ; Long, Michael (Michael M.) (Japanese Geotechnical Society, 2007-02)

  A comparative study of the NGI Direct Simple Shear Test (DSST) and the Mikasa Direct Shear Test (DST) is reported. Samples from Norwegian Drammen clay and Japanese Ariake clay were subjected to both types of test. An ...
