Estimation of Primary and Mechanical Compression in MSW Landfills
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The density of municipal solid waste (MSW) plays a significant role in the computation of landfill settlement. A methodology is developed to compute the primary and mechanical compression considering the landfill density ...
Postclosure Long-Term Settlement for MSW Landfills
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A mathematical model is developed to estimate the settlement attributable to biodegradation for municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills incorporating the effects of pH, temperature, and moisture content. The post closure ...
Experimental Study of Seawater Intrusion in Stratified Layers with Sloping Ocean–Aquifer Boundary
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Seawater intrusion (SWI) is a concern for coastline-saturated aquifers because it increases salinity, which contaminates and degrades groundwater quality. Rising sea levels and other natural processes, as well as anthropogenic ...
