The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

An SSI‐Informed Design for Tuned Mass Dampers With Small‐to‐Large Mass Ratios
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Tuned Mass Dampers (TMDs) are used to mitigate structural vibrations induced by seismic or wind excitation, by tuning the device to the system's dominant resonant frequencies. However, the TMD effectiveness can be undermined by soil‐structure interaction, which can lead to elongation of the vibration periods and to combined translational ...

A Martini-based coarse-grained soil organic matter model derived from atomistic simulations
The significance of soil organic matter (SOM) in environmental contexts, particularly its role in pollutant adsorption, has prompted increased utilization of molecular simulations to understand microscopic interactions.

Influence of Coarse Grain Content on the Mechanical Properties of Red Sandstone Soil
, 2023 Coarse-grained red sandstone soil is often used as embankment filling material but is prone to being broken by extrusion, which lowers the stability of the roadbed. This paper aimed to clarify the influence of the variation in coarse-grain content on the

Grassland Research, EarlyView.Under steady–state conditions, potential nitrogen mineralization in soil under grasslands is closely tied to potential carbon mineralization. This study provides supporting evidence that field–specific nitrogen fertilizer recommendations could be indicated by using a simple and rapid analysis of soil–test biological activity.

Modelling frost heave in unsaturated coarse-grained soils
, 2021 © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. Coarse-grained soils were considered not susceptible to frost heave. However, substantial frost heave has been observed in unsaturated coarse fills in high-speed railway embankments.

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.Associations between outdoor air pollution and cancers other than lung cancer remain unclear, particularly in the context of tobacco use. Here, the authors assessed possible links between ambient air pollutant exposure and incidence of 20 non‐lung cancers among adults followed over a 25‐year period in the United States.

Experimental study on frost heave in unsaturated coarse-grained soil caused by vapour transfer
, 2022 The frost heave caused by vapour transfer has recently attracted much attention, but there is little experimental evidence so far. A series of laboratory experiments are carried out by using the newly developed frost heave apparatus.

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Efficient irrigation scheduling is critical in sandy soils to achieve optimum yield and maximum net benefit with minimum environmental concerns. The Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC) model was used to study the impacts of autoirrigation of corn on crop yield and soil water balance during 2019–2021 at −300 and −450 kPa for loamy ...
