Stochastic Contaminant Transport Monitoring in Heterogeneous Sand and Gravel Aquifers of the United Arab Emirates
(Pushpa Publishing House, 2014)
A high-resolution Monte Carlostochastic, coupled groundwater-flow-and-contaminant-transport model was developed to simulate the movement of chemicals into heterogeneous aquifers, resulting from random surface contamination ...
Sampling Frequency of Groundwater Monitoring and Remediation Delay at Contaminated Sites
(Springer, 2012-07)
This study examines the frequency of sampling at contaminated sites located in heterogeneous subsurface environments. The impact of delays in remedial response is also investigated in terms of the growth that such delays ...
Contaminant detection probability in heterogeneous aquifers and corrected risk analysis for remedial response delay.
(Willey Blackwell, 2011-10)
A Monte Carlo stochastic model was developed to simulate contaminant transport from an instantaneous source into heterogeneous, two‐dimensional aquifers. Probabilities of detection Pd and contaminated groundwater areas ...
Foundations of geo-environmental engineering
(Elsevier, 2017)
Fundamentals of Geoenvironmental Engineering: Understanding Soil, Water, and Pollutant Interaction and Transport examines soil-water-pollutant interaction, including physico-chemical processes that occur when soil is exposed ...
Stochastic Modeling of Plume Evolution and Monitoring in Heterogeneous Aquifers
(Springer, 2011)
A Monte Carlo stochastic model was developed to simulate contaminant transport from an instantaneous source inside a landfill into heterogeneous, two-dimensional aquifers. Probabilities of detection Pd were calculated for ...
Microwave assisted reactions in organic chemistry: A review of recent advances
(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2012-11-20)
Revolution in organic compound synthesis has been promoted by microwave assisted organic syntheses (MAOS)
by which small molecules are built up into large polymers in a fraction of time. The need for different organic
compound ...
Social Housing as a State-Funded Mega Project: A Case Study from Saudi Arabia
(Amps, 2018-04-30)
There are many kinds of war. They span from typical military conflicts to socially and politically charged environments, from fiscal colonization to ghostly wars about information and the internet. But what about the fear ...
Designing electrospun nanocomposite poly(vinylidene fluoride) mats with tunable wettability
(sciencedirect, 2017-06-20)
The beneficial intrinsic properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) can be enhanced by fabricating electrospun nanocomposite PVDF fibrous mats of predetermined morphology. These electrospun mats can be very useful in ...
Biopolyester-based nanocomposites: Structural, thermo-mechanical and biocompatibility characteristics of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)/montmorillonite clay nanohybrids
(Wiley Online Library, 2014-11-14)
In this work, the structural, thermal, mechanical, and biocompatibility characteristics of biopolyester-based nanocomposites with phyllosilicate clays, namely those of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) with octadecylamine-modified ...
Nanocomposites of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)/organomodified montmorillonite: Effect of the nanofiller on the polymer's biodegradation
(Wiley Online Library, 2014-11-15)
Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a biopolymer that can be degraded by extracellular PHB depolymerase. This enzyme is secreted by various microorganisms, but bacterial PHB depolymerases are the most widely studied. The ...
