Abstract: Granular materials consist of a large number of small particles arranged in a random way. However, while the geometrical organization of an individual particle assembly is complex, these materials can nevertheless be well ...

Abstract: Many northern communities rely on open reservoirs as a water source during winter. In the north, open reservoirs can experience ice thicknesses of over 2 m, which can result in a loss in usable storage of up to 60% of the ...

Abstract: Presented are the results of a water-distribution corrosion study conducted for the City of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. Conducted were water-distribution system corrosion tests, the evaluation of corrosion ...

Abstract: Freeze thaw was studied as a waste treatment method for concentration and volume reduction of contaminated waste concentrates that are derived from the use of membrane technology in the treatment of high strength Kraft ...

Abstract: Although the jar test has long been used in coagulation and flocculation, there is little available information on vessel hydrodynamics. Vessel-average parameters such as the root-mean-square velocity gradient,

Abstract: Fluoride is a potentially toxic ion that occurs in aquifers both naturally and as a result of anthropogenic activity. Sometimes remediation of the aquifer is required. One potential aquifer decontamination strategy is an ...

Abstract: A field site was established in 1993 near Newcastle, Australia, as part of a long-term study into expansive soil behavior. The primary objectives in establishing the site were to collect high quality data with which to ...

Abstract: The concentration of microorganisms in the vicinity of a submerged marine outfall is governed by dilution and decay processes. Dilution is a physical process related to the hydraulic characteristics of the site. Decay of ...

Abstract: This study was carried out to investigate organic and inorganic contaminant removal from melting spray ice produced from aerated stabilization basin treated pulp mill wastewater and the oil sands tailings pond water. The ...
