The New Munich Airport?Planning, Construction and Opening of a New International Turnstile Airport in Europe
The new Munich airport that began operations just recently dates back to the mid-1950. The paper discusses the general expansion plan which includes site selection; runway system planning;...
Passive Dispersive Transport Modelling: Comparison with Experimental Rhodamine Data in the Elbe Estuary, Germany
Aiming at modelling of the complex water mass, suspended matter and pollutant transport in a tidal estuary, the ability of simulating the transport of passive, conservative tracers is...
Modeling Tidal and Wind Driven Circulation in Sarasota and Tampa Bay
As part of an effort to quantify the effects of hydrodynamics on water quality within Sarasota Bay, Tampa Bay and their adjoining waters, a field and modeling study of circulation and...
Water Quality Modelling: Prediction of the Transport of Water Constituents in the Weser Estuary (Germany)
Water quality monitoring of the Weser estuary is carried out in conjunction with numerical modelling of the transport processes. For analytical and prognostical studies, and especially...
Housing Chernobyl Relocatees
The April 1986 explosion of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Reactor 4 in northern Ukraine Commonwealth spread nuclear contamination assisted by southerly winds across hundreds of miles...
Stochastic Modelling of Strong Ground Motions for the Istanbul, Turkey Area from Seismic Data for the Surrounding Region
The ultimate goal of this research is to obtain simulations of earthquake ground motions for the Istanbul, Turkey region. A process of earthquake analysis developed by Ellis and Cakmak...
F-K Spectra From a Haskell-Type Source in a Multiple-Layered Half-Space
Analytic expressions for the complex Fourier amplitudes of seismic ground motion at the free surface of a layered half-space are established. The seismic source is described using Haskell's...
Low-Cycle Fatigue Prediction for Ramberg-Osgood Type Materials
The prediction of low-cycle fatigue crack growth is successfully made by an equation employing the J-integral range. This equation, originally proposed by Dowling and Begley, is analogous...
Greenhouse Irrigation Technology Transfer in Spain
In recent years, an intensive horticultural production system using unheated, plastic greenhouses has been widely adopted in the Mediterranean basin. Greenhouses now occupy more than 15,000...
7-Day 10-Yr Low Flow Relationships for Ungauged Sites in Central Italy
The principal objective of the present study was to establish relationships between some easily measurable basin characteristics and seven-day ten-year Low Flow Index, Q7,10....
Prediction of Sedimentgraph from a Small Watershed in Poland in a Changing Environment
Estimates of sedimentgraphs and temporal distributions of sediment concentrations are essential for prediction of pollutant concentrations in streams and reservoirs. In such predictions,...
United States Metrication and the EC 92
Major Congressional legislation adopted in 1988 was related to USA trade and competitiveness problems of the Nation. The legislation contained a section on metrication that required all...
New Cruise Terminal for San Francisco
A new international Cruise Terminal is being developed at Pier 30-32 in San Francisco, to replace present inadequate facilities at Pier 35. The Cruise Terminal will be developed as part...
Extended Experience with a Short-Term Hydropower Scheduling Model in New England
The New England Power Exchange (NEPEX) is responsible for the central dispatch of power throughout New England. To assure the maximum benefits of power pooling, the electric facilities...
Habitat Simulation in United States, Britain, and France
The need to identify an instream flow requirement for water resources management exists in a number of countries. The use of habitat simulation in the United States, Great Britain, and...
Water Management as an Instrument for Cooperation and Reconciliation
Empirical models for identifying potential water quantity and water quality conflicts in water resources development are presented. These planning models are applied to a previously developed...
A Review of Current UK Techniques for Rehabilitating Water Mains
This paper describes the main techniques used in the UK Water Industry to rehabilitate water mains, highlighting their advantages and disadvantages....
Reservoir Water Quality Modeling in Northern Portugal?Some Case Studies
In the last two decades environmental problems have become a major concern in Portugal as the effects of water pollution have gradually impaired the quality of water resources. Mathematical...
