Historic residential and commercial structures in an early twentieth century town in the southeastern United States have regularly and repeatedly been damaged by an adjacent quarry, despite the diligent keeping of blasting ...
Managing municipal and industrial biosolids by recycling through the land is currently a strategic policy direction in Ireland. Although recycling biosolids is a plausible management alternative it can also be a contentious ...
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 ...
Rainfall induced landslides are a major cause of disturbance to transport networks in many parts of the world. In slopes where the water table is some depth below the ground surface, negative pore water pressure (suctions) ...
In this paper, two laboratory scale simulated reed beds were investigated for the purpose of assessing the feasibility and effectiveness of using dewatered alum sludge as a possible substrate for wastewater treatment reed ...
This study aims to explore a novel application of dewatered alum sludge cakes (DASC) as the main medium in a single model reed bed to treat phosphorus-rich animal farm wastewater under "tidal flow" operation on a long term ...
This paper presents a new approach to the modelling of congested traffic loading events on long span bridges. Conventional traffic load models are based on weigh-in-motion data of non-congested traffic, or something similar ...
The decreased cost and increased processing speed for terrestrial laser scanners have made this remote sensing procedure much more attractive. The approach has two major advantages over traditional surveying: (1) a ...
