Dam and Reservoir Optimization Model; Aswan High Dam Reservoir, Egypt
ISBN: 9783847329688 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Developing optimal release policies of multi-purposes reservoirs is very complex, especially for reservoirs with explicit stochastic environment, (e.g. uncertainty in future inflows). Most of optimization techniques that are applied to search for optimal releases, use summative measures of reservoir performance, e.g. expected benefits or costs. These techniques have limited aptitude to represent risks associated with deciding in a release policy. In fact, the approach of these techniques may be at odds with the true attitudes of the decision-makers toward the risk aspects of release policies....

Requirements Analysis of Developing Communities' Sanitation Management
ISBN: 9783838307893 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There is 2.6 billion of worlds citizens lack basic sanitation (WHO-UNICEF, 2006). The target of Millennium Development Goals to halve the number by 2015 faces tough challenges and requires a robust framework as a strategy to improve the condition. Often the technologies are incorrectly chosen; they can not meet communitys capacities and consequently can not provide sustainable access to water and sanitation. The research presented in this thesis approaches the problem from technology point of view, under the Capacity Factor Analysis framework developed by Louis, et al. and analyzes the...

Bayesian Network Models for
ISBN: 9783838356556 / Angielski / Miękka / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Addressing salinity management problem, at catchment scales requires an integrated modelling approach, in which key bio-physical and socio-economic drivers, processes and impacts are all considered. The problems are also characterised by data and knowledge that is sparse, scattered and of varying type and quality. Therefore, the approach must have the ability to use and integrate both qualitative and quantitative data and information extracted from a range of pre-existing sources. This book presents and evaluates the use of a Bayesian Decision Network model as an integrated approach for...

Greywater Reuse for the Irrigation of Food Crops
ISBN: 9783838366760 / Angielski / Miękka / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In many parts of the world, water scarcity represents a significant challenge to human health and environmental integrity. At the same time, irrigated agriculture accounts for over 70% of global freshwater use. As the world's population grows and prosperity spreads, water demands increase and multiply without the possibility for an increase in supply. The mounting demand on this finite and invaluable resource has inspired creative strategies for freshwater management, including innovative techniques for wastewater recycling. Greywater reuse is one such strategy, and its usefulness to fulfill...
