Shear Strength Parameters of Municipal Solid Waste with Leachate Recirculation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this study was to characterize relative changes in waste shear strength parameters during waste decomposition. Twelve direct shear tests (
Relationship of Compressibility Parameters to Municipal Solid Waste Decomposition
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recently, there has been substantial interest in the enhancement of refuse decomposition in landfills, which results in increased settlement. In this paper, changes in waste compressibility as a function of the state of ...
Cyclic Capacity and Diving Potential of Novel Fish Anchor in Calcareous Silt
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports the performance of a novel dynamically installed fish anchor under cyclic operational loading in calcareous silt. The investigation was carried out through a series of centrifuge model tests. The results ...
Performance of a Novel Dynamically Installed Fish Anchor in Calcareous Silt
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Diving upon pullout of an installed anchor leads to an increase in embedment depth and, hence, capacity under operational loadings. It is particularly critical for dynamically installed anchors (DIAs) in calcareous sediments ...
Performance of a Novel Dynamically Installed Fish Anchor in Calcareous Silt
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Diving upon pullout of an installed anchor leads to an increase in embedment depth and, hence, capacity under operational loadings. It is particularly critical for dynamically installed anchors (DIAs) in calcareous sediments ...
Effect of Saline Water on Decomposition and Landfill Gas Generation of Municipal Solid Waste
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The fundamental process involved in the operation of bioreactor landfills is the addition of water and/or the recirculation of leachate into the landfill’s waste mass for rapid waste stabilization, waste decomposition, and ...
Insight into the Behavior of a Caisson Anchor under Cyclic Loading in Calcareous Silt
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper provides insight into the behavior of a stiffened caisson anchor under inclined cyclic loading in calcareous silt. A series of tests was conducted in a beam centrifuge. A monotonic test was first performed, ...
A Simple Breakage Model for Calcareous Sand and Its FE Implementation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper reports the development of a particle breakage model within a finite-element (FE) framework based on the modified Mohr–Coulomb model (MMC). A modified form of the strength-dilatancy relationship is used to ...
IGR Solid-State Electrochemical NOx Control for Natural Gas Combustion Exhaust Gases
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solid-state electrochemical technology, embodied in the IGR process, is used to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx ) to nitrogen and oxygen, and thereby control NOx emissions from natural gas powered ...
Geotechnical Centrifuge Investigation of the Effectiveness of a Novel Spudcan in Easing Spudcan–Footprint Interactions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The interaction between a spudcan and an existing footprint is one of the major concerns during the reinstallation of jack-up rigs. This paper reports the results from a series of centrifuge model tests undertaken to assess ...
