Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTunnel Static Behavior Assessed by a Probabilistic Approach to the Back-AnalysisClaudio Oggeri, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: The steps of the validation procedure of the project of a tunnel are briefly illustrated in this study, starting from the geological and structural surveys on the excavation walls and the measurement of the physical and mechanical parameters during the excavation works. Unfortunately, however, the knowledge of the rock mass, which is fundamental to the project, is usually … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 4 Jun 2012 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Reuse Potential of Chemical Sludge from Textile Wastewater Treatment Plants in India-A Hazardous WasteHema Patel, Suneel PandeyProblem statement: This study was conducted to explore the reuse potential of the chemical sludge (considered as hazardous waste as per Indian Government Hazardous Waste Management Rules) generated from combined effluent treatment in textile clusters. These textile clusters mainly cover the cotton dyeing and printing operations. Approach: Therefore, treatability studies of chemical sludge were conducted using solidification/stabilization treatment to examine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Model For Sieves' Vibrations Analysis, Using an Algorithm Based on the False-Position MethodDinu I. Stoicovici, Miorita Ungureanu, Nicu Ungureanu, Mihai BanicaThe analysis of the sieves vibrations in the case of screening civil engineering construction bulk materials is usual made by using some differential equations depending on parameters related to different material and sieves characteristics. One of those parameters is the throwing coefficient -c- that is the ratio between the force capable to throw up the particle from the sieve surface, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,780 accessesView PDFCite
