  2. 21. Resistivity investigation and monitoring for detection of internal erosion and anomalous seepage in embankment dams

    Author : Pontus Sjödahl; Teknisk geologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydrogeologi; teknisk geologi; internal erosion; Hydrogeology; geographical and geological engineering; time-lapse inversion; inversion; monitoring; modelling; resistivity; detection; leakage; seepage; teknisk geografi; embankment dam;

    Abstract : Methods for monitoring seepage and detecting internal erosion are essential for the safety evaluation of embankment dams. Internal erosion is one of the major reasons for embankment dam failures, and there are several tenths of thousands of large embankment dams in the world. READ MORE

  4. 22. The Integrated Distributed Hydrological Model, ECOFLOW- a Tool for Catchment Management

    Author : Nikolay Sokrut; Roger Thunvik; Tuomo Karvonen; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrogeology; Multiple-scale hydrological modelling; Bayesian algorithm; Parameter estimation; Groundwater management; Statistical analysis; Hydrogeologi; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    Abstract : In order to find effective measures that meet the requirements for proper groundwater quality and quantity management, there is a need to develop a Decision Support System (DSS) and a suitable modelling tool. Central components of a DSS for groundwater management are thought to be models for surface- and groundwater flow and solute transport. READ MORE

  5. 23. Properties of heavy rainfall in an East Asian monsoon catchment - Analysis of daily rain gauge data

    Author : Cecilia Svensson; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; China.; Huai River; East Asian monsoon; typhoon; Mei-Yu front; fractals; empirical orthogonal function analysis; correlation analysis; probable maximum precipitation; storm movement; seasonal occurrence; Rainfall; spatial pattern; Hydrogeology; geographical and geological engineering; Hydrogeologi; teknisk geologi; teknisk geografi; Geophysics; physical oceanography; meteorology; Geofysik; fysisk oceanografi; meteorologi;

    Abstract : The East Asian monsoon has a strong seasonal effect on the rainfall regime of Eastern China. In order to mitigate floods and conserve the water for use throughout the year, dams and other hydro-structures are built. The design of the structures requires knowledge of the rainfall characteristics that influence the inflow to them. READ MORE

  6. 24. Application of the SASW-technique in geotechnical in-situ testing

    Author : Mats Svensson; Institutioner vid LTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; teknisk geologi; Hydrogeologi; Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves; shear modulus; SASW; multichannel; inversion; Gmax; teknisk geografi; Environmental technology; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; geographical and geological engineering; Hydrogeology; Civil engineering; hydraulic engineering; offshore technology; soil mechanics; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : With the main aim to test the applicability of the surface wave seismic technique Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves (SASW), used for determination of the shear stiffness (shear modulus - Gmax), four areas of applications have been studied. The four areas have been sites with natural geological conditions, sites where non destructive testing is necessary, pavement testing and multichannel testing. READ MORE

  7. 25. On leachate emissions from municipal solid waste

    Author : Martijn van Praagh; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydrogeology; Miljöstudier; Environmental studies; Environmental Impact; heavy metals; Organic carbon; teknisk geologi; Hydrogeologi; geographical and geological engineering; teknisk geografi;

    Abstract : When attention is drawn to the recovery of resources within waste, the amount and types of waste disposed of at landfills change. A waste management system based on separate kerbside collection, sorting, recycling, and pretreatment with material and/or energy recovery produces new residues, which finally end up at landfills.
