Nutrient Dynamics in Flooded Wetlands. I: Model Development
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2013)
Wetlands are rich ecosystems recognized for ameliorating floods improving water quality and providing other ecosystem benefits. This part of a two-paper series presents a relatively detailed process-based model for nitrogen ...
Nutrient Dynamics in Flooded Wetlands. II: Model Application
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2013)
In this paper the authors applied and evaluated the wetland nutrient model that was described in Paper I. Hydrologic and water quality data from a small restored wetland located on Kent Island Maryland which is part of the ...
Master problem approximations in Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition of variational inequality problems with applications to two energy market models
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)
In this paper a modification to Dantzig-Wolfe (DW) decomposition algorithm for variational inequality (VI) problems is considered to alleviate the computational burden and to facilitate model management and maintenance. ...
'Level grading' a new graded algebra structure on differential polynomials: application to the classification of scalar evolution equations
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2013)
We define a new grading which we call the 'level grading' on the algebra of polynomials generated by the derivatives u(k+i) over the ring K-(k) of C-infinity functions of x t u u(1) ... u(k) where . This grading has the ...
A fuzzy QFD approach to determine supply chain management strategies in the dairy industry
(Springer, 2013)
The aim of this study is to identify the crucial logistics requirements and supply chain management (SCM) strategies for the dairy industry. For product or service development quality function deployment (QFD) is a useful ...
Flow and Turbulence Structure Around an In-Stream Rectangular Cylinder with Scour Hole
(TSINGHUA UNIV, 2013)
An eddy resolving technique is used to reveal the unsteady dynamics of the coherent structures present in the flow field around an in-stream vertical cylinder with a scour hole at a channel Reynolds number of 240000. Such ...
A Numerical Study of Shallow Mixing Development over Flat Surface and Dunes
(TSINGHUA UNIV, 2013)
Results of a high resolution Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) are used to characterize the evolution of a shallow mixing layer developing between two parallel streams in a long open channel with a smooth flat bed and dunes. ...
Landfill Gas to the Energy Potential of Turkey: A Scenario-based Multi-period Simulation
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2013)
Turkey is a developing country with increasing power demands and limited energy sources. Municipal solid waste processing landfilling and utilization of the gas to generate electric power and lower emissions has been used ...
A MATHEMATICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE CRITICAL POINT IN PHASE TRANSITIONS
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2013)
Let y(x) be a smooth sigmoidal curve, y((n)) be its nth derivative and {x(m,i)} and {x(a,i)}, i = 1, 2, ... , be the set of points where respectively the derivatives of odd and even order reach their extreme values. We ...
