Book Advances in Characterization and Analysis of Expansive Soils and Rocks

Download or read book Advances in Characterization and Analysis of Expansive Soils and Rocks written by Laureano R. Hoyos and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume includes a collection of technical papers covering two important research topics in geotechnical engineering: (1) the behavior and treatment of expansive soils, and (2) the characterization of rock properties. The twelve studies on expansive soils include investigations into novel stabilization techniques for expansive soils using different admixtures or mechanical consolidation techniques, as well as new experimental approaches to evaluate the behavior of expansive soils. They also include an evaluation of wetting boundary conditions on the volume change of expansive soils, as well as the role of hydrologic boundary conditions in arid climates. The four studies on rock properties include thermo-hydro-mechanical behavior of gypsum rock, role of rock strength in blastability, indirect methods to estimate rock strength, and variations in isotope distributions in Permian rocks. The two broad themes in this collection, as summarized above, are representative of local challenges facing geotechnical engineers in the Middle East, but their contributions can also be extended to other regions of the world. This volume is part of the proceedings of the 1st GeoMEast International Congress and Exhibition on Sustainable Civil Infrastructures, Egypt 2017.

Book Desert Energy

Download or read book Desert Energy written by Alasdair Cameron and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2013. Desert Energy examines the key technologies being deployed in an effort to tap the potential presented by the world’s deserts for siting large scale solar power applications, and surveys the feasibility of such projects given the remoteness and hostility of these environments. Focusing on large scale photovoltaics and concentrating solar thermal power, the book explains how the systems work, projects that are being planned, the required scales, and the technical difficulties they need to overcome to function effectively. It then moves on to examine the economics of such projects and the social and environmental effects they may have. The book also considers the future for these systems as well as other, less developed technologies which may have a role to play. With reference throughout to built or planned projects, and written in a clear, jargon-free style, this is a must-read for anyone interested in the development of large scale solar applications.
