Abstract: The impact of alternative water development strategies upon an urbanized area in the semi‐arid Southwest is examined within a multiobjective context. The main stem of the Santa Cruz River Basin is taken as a case study. ...

Abstract: A two-fluid model with second-order turbulence closure is used for the simulation of a turbulent bubbly boundary layer. The turbulence model is based on the decomposition of the Reynolds stress tensor in the liquid phase ...

Abstract: Increasingly stricter emission regulations and fleet CO2 targets drive the engine development toward clean combustion and high efficiency. To achieve this goal, planning and conducting experiments in a time- and cost-effective ...

Abstract: Multicriterion decision‐making (MCDM) techniques are used to analyze a multiobjective wastewater management problem in order to select an appropriate management scheme. A specific case study consisting of 15 alternative ...

Abstract: An application of four multicriterion decision making (MCDM) techniques to a typical ground‐water management problem is presented. Criteria representing pumping yield, total costs, and water‐shortage risk are considered. ...

Abstract: A multicriterion decision-making (MCDM) methodology is developed to design a long-term water supply system involving multiple actors. A 1989 regional development plan for augmenting water resources in the Adour-Garonne ...

Abstract: A fuzzy rule-based methodology is developed for estimating monthly groundwater recharge using the Toms River basin in New Jersey as a case study. As an alternative to a water budget approach, which depends upon ...
