-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2009-07)Despite tremendous advances by women in the natural and applied sciences, where in selective fields women have surpassed men in the earning of doctoral degrees for more nearly 20 years, female enrollment levels in engineering ...
-
(Institution of Civil Engineers, 2007-09)Geotechnical characteristics of Dublin Boulder Clay (DBC) based on detailed site investigation and site experience from some recent large projects in Dublin are presented. This paper attempts to synthesise available ...
-
(World Federation of Engineering Organizations, 2011-09-04)Creation of an environment in which shallow geothermal energy can thrive will require a coherent approach and a high level of collaboration with professionals from countries that have developed technical expertise in the ...
-
(Institution of Engineers, 2011-07)Detailed analysis of potential water chemistry and settlement issues associated with the installation of open-loop geothermal systems is infrequently carried out. This has led to the failure of several previously installed ...
-
(BRE Press, 2006-10)Rehabilitation of building structures is a critical need facing numerous older urban areas. Many of these structures are supported on pile groups, which do not have adequate load capacity to support the demands expected ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2005-05)The experimental procedures and results are presented for a one-tenth scale laboratory investigation of changes in achievable grouted zones through alterations in helical pier parameters. The parameters investigated were ...
-
(Royal Irish Academy, 2009)The Water Framework Directive has been the catalyst for a considerable amount of data collection, analysis and research covering a wide range of physical and biological characteristics and involving a wide range of scientific, ...
-
(DFI, 2009-10)Jet grouting is a ground improvement technique that has become widely adopted over the past three decades, yet relatively little data has been published about performance characteristics of mixes under adverse conditions, ...
-
(Elsevier, 2008-12-15)In line with the increasing studies on the beneficial reuse of alum sludge from a “waste” into useful raw material, this paper reports an in-depth investigation of the effects of ageing time on the structure and the phosphate ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2007-03)A three-tiered, enterprise, GIS architecture offers a robust, efficient, and secure platform to potentially revolutionize disaster management by enabling support of all of the phases of governmental activity that must occur ...
-
(ASTM, 2009-06)Waterworks sludge continues to be an inescapable by-product of the potable water treatment process. Accordingly, final disposal of the sludge remains one of the most significant pressing problems for the potable water ...
-
(NRC Research Press, 2007-05)The Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) technique, used to determine shear wave velocity (Vs) and hence small strain stiffness (Gmax), has recently generated considerable interest in the geophysics community. ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2004)Sustainability in the construction industry can only be achieved through a radical rethinking of building construction and reuse. This paper outlines the problems and offers innovative solutions that embrace technological ...
-
(Elsevier, 2009-04-07)Phosphorus (P) desorption from P-saturated alum sludge, which was used as main substrate in a novel constructed wetland for wastewater treatment, was studied. Groups of batch experiments were designed and conducted to ...
-
(Royal Irish Academy, 2010-12)Although peat slope failures have occurred in Ireland for many thousands of years their causal factors and the triggering mechanisms involved are poorly understood. A particular barrier to quantitative assessment of the ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2006-01)This research assessed the use of gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) as a skeleton builder for sludge dewatering since polymer conditioning of sludge affected only the rate of water release, not the extent of dewatering. The use of gypsum ...
-
(Springer, 2011-03-02)The purpose of this paper is to present a review of peat landslide events in Ireland since 2003, when two significant events occurred. Since 2003, there have been at least thirteen such events. Several of these events ...
-
(Elsevier, 2006-06)The photocatalysis of natural organic matter, fulvic acid (FA), by P25 TiO2 in terms of UV254 and TOC concentrations was investigated in this study. The experiments were conducted in a lab-scale photocatalysis-ultrafiltration ...
-
(Springer, 2010-08)Concept and purpose Virtually all water treatment facilities worldwide generate an enormous amount of water treatment residual (WTR) solids for which environmentally-friendly end-use options are continually being sought ...
