1. 1. Water quality improvement of highway runoff by the filter material D-Rainclean : A five-month field trial

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : William Gulding; [2023]
   Keywords : Adsorption; D-Rainclean; metal removal; Reactive filter; stormwater treatment;

   Abstract : Highway runoff and its pollutants are of growing concern. These pollutants require treatment as their concentration often are increased. A common removal method is the use of sedimentation ponds that removes particulates through gravity. READ MORE

3. 2. Design of RCC gravity dam and FEM modelling in GeoStudio - Longtan dam

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Patrick Lucas Arkadiusz Bochnak; Maria Eugenia Correa Saracco; [2020]
   Keywords : RCC; China; Longtan dam; Flood routing; GeoStudio; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : China’s rapid economic development has led to a continuously increasing energy demand and the country is the world’s biggest energy user as of today. The country accounts for around 23% of the global energy production, but 70% of the Chinese energy is generated with coal power and China is the biggest emitter of CO2 in the world. READ MORE

5. 4. Internal Erosion and Dam Stability : Analysis of the internal erosion effects on stability of an embankment dam

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

   Author : Arthur Jedenius; [2018]
   Keywords : Internal erosion stability finite element analysis method plaxis slope seep;

   Abstract : Embankment dams encounter several problems in terms of dam safety. One of those problems is called internal erosion. This phenomenon is induced by the movement of fine particles within the dam due to seepage forces. If the dam is not able to self-heal, the eroded zones will increase which will eventually cause the dam to fail. READ MORE

6. 5. Stress and Sliding Stability Analysis of Songlin Rock-Filled Concrete Gravity Dam

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

   Author : Max Sundström; Max Ivedal; [2016]
   Keywords : Songlin rock-filled concrete gravity dam; rock-filled concrete; self-compacting concrete; Finite element method; static analysis; Abaqus;

   Abstract : The construction of Songlin rock-filled concrete gravity dam, located in the Yunnan province, China began in the end of 2015. In this master thesis the finite element method (FEM) based software Abaqus has been used to perform a computational analysis on tension stresses, compression stresses and sliding stability for static conditions.
