Parallel-Adaptive Finite Element Analysis on a Transputer Cluster
This paper describes a parallel-adaptive finite element approach on a parallel transputer cluster of the MIMD type. The analysis is controlled by a special error indicator. In comparison...
Production and Decomposition of
Production and decomposition rates were calculated for Spartina patens in a mesohaline coastal marsh in Louisiana. Production was estimated to be 800 g m-2 ur-1 during 1991 and 1,696 g...
Aspects of Parallel Processing in Reservoir Simulation
Vectorization techniques have proved to be extremely effective for large-scale reservoir simulations. Parallel capabilities hold even greater potential for these enormous problems. Domain...
Space Habitat Contaminant Growth Models?Part II
This paper reports on the continuation of work being done at NASA's Center for Space Environmental Health (CSEH) at the University of Colorado at Boulder on contaminant growth modelling...
Near-Field Transport of Radioactive Chains
Much attention has been given to predicting the near-field mass transfer of a single radioactive species from a waste solid into surrounding porous material, but only limited consideration...
A Proposed Regulatory Guide Basis for Spent Fuel Decay Heat
A proposed revision to Regulatory Guide 3.54, 'Spent Fuel Heat Generation in an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation' has been developed for the U.S. Nuclear...
Optimal Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures via Decomposition and a Variety of Search Strategies
This paper presents a strategy where the design of a reinforced concrete structure is not only automated, but optimized. The strategy employs decomposition to subdivide the problem into...
Impact of Long Term Landfill Deformation
Statistical Preconditioning in Simulation of Stochastic Vectors
A new stochastic vector simulation technique which realizes prescribed zero-mean vector and covariance matrix with a substantially smaller sample size than that of other existing methods...
On Stochastic Decomposition and Its Applications in Probabilistic Dynamics
The frequency domain analysis concerning the response of cascade-nested multiple input/output systems requires computation of the cross-spectral density matrix involving the input, intermediate...
Upgrading Hydraulic Infrastructure for Level One Redundancy
In the current paper a methodology is presented for upgrading any single source water distribution system in order to provide a level one system redundancy at a minimum cost. A level one...
Optimal Operation of Multiple Reservoir Systems
In this paper a temporal decomposition approach is presented to solve a long term deterministic model for a multi-reservoir system. Through relaxation the long term problem is broken into...
Occupational and Environmental Exposures to Radon: A Perspective for Mitigators
Occupational exposures to radon and radon decay products and the associated high incidence of radiation induced lung cancer form the basis for our present-day concern for limiting exposures...
Modeling of Gaseous Emission from Landfills and Other Area Sources
Several dispersion models based on the Gaussian equation are evaluated to assess their relative utility in modeling emission dispersion from an area source, such as a landfill. The VAPOR...
Mass Balance Analysis of Decomposed Refuse in Laboratory Scale Lysimeters
Decomposition of shredded municipal refuse was studied under laboratory conditions with leachate recycle and neutralization. Cellulose and hemicellulose accounted for 91% of the methane...
