  Soil-Water-Solute process characterization: An Integrated Approach

Soil-Water-Solute process characterization: An Integrated Approach

Soil-Water-Solute process characterization: An Integrated Approach

Publisher: CRC Press; 1 edition (December 28, 2004)
Format: PDF
Language: English
ISBN10: 1566706572

Description:
The development and application of methods for monitoring and characterizing soil-water-solute processes are among the most limiting factors in understanding the soil environment. Experimental methods are a critical part of scientific papers, and their design and implementation are usually the most time-consuming tasks in research. When selecting a method to characterize a property governing a soil process, the practitioner or researcher often faces complex alternatives. In many cases these alternatives are bypassed in favor of recommendations from colleagues on well-established methods that might not be the most suitable for the specific conditions of a study.

The practitioner or researcher often faces complex alternatives when selecting a method to characterize properties governing a soil process. After years of research and development, environmental and agricultural professionals now have an array of methods for characterizing soil processes. Well-established methods, however, may not be suitable for the specific conditions of a study since many soil characteristics are intrinsically variable. An objective, integrated approach for soil characterization is needed to more effectively quantify parameters.
Soil-Water-Solute Process Characterization goes beyond technical guidance and addresses the complicating factors such as spatial and temporal variability of soil processes, scale issues, soil structure, and the trade-offs between methods. It focuses on advanced methods for the monitoring and modeling of mass transfer processes in soil. Expert contributors present limitations to well-known methods and alternatives, discussing their practical applications for characterization efforts, evaluating strengths and weaknesses, and focusing on a reduced set of selected techniques. Three in-depth sections cover everything from multidisciplinary approaches for assessing subsurface non-point source pollution to techniques for characterizing water and energy balances at the soil-plant-atmosphere interface, field methods for monitoring soil water status, and computer models for characterizing the effect of chemicals in soil.

This single-source reference is transforming method selection and our understanding of the principles, advantages, and limitations of the available monitoring techniques. Written in a simple and straightforward manner, Soil-Water-Solute Process Characterization is a detailed cookbook and a useful, practical reference for students, practitioners, and researchers.

Life-Cycle Costing: Using Activity-Based Costing and Monte Carlo Methods to Manage Future Costs and Risks

[Image: 55032768352904342248.jpg]

[Image: info.png]
By: Jan Emblemsvåg (Author)
Hardcover: 336 pages
Publisher: Wiley (March 14, 2003)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0471358851
ISBN-13: 9780471358855




Product Description:


Manage costs before they occur

"Traditional cost cutting has always had a backward focus and created lots of negative reactions–both rational and irrational. In his new book, Jan Emblemsvag introduces a new forward looking life-cycle approach to cost management. Employing foresight instead of hindsight puts the focus on processes, uncertainty and risks, and future value creation.

"The author’s strong side–besides having a good holistic concept–is the ability to express himself accurately and clearly on very complicated and sophisticated theory. Managers, consultants, and others with interest in cost management will be enlightened and inspired by the book–and no doubt find it of great help in applying the methods and processes that are presented.

"The idea of turning uncertainty into an asset for managers is quite unique. Making budgeting less data-oriented and more risk-oriented is another good idea. The next step now is to make operative approaches and apply the theory in practical situations!"
–John-Erik Stenberg
Considium Consulting Group AS

"This book skillfully combines the ideas of life-cycle costing and activity-based costing to come up with an approach to effectively manage costs in an uncertain environment."
–Dr. Arnold Schneider
Professor of Accounting
Georgia Institute of Technology

Life-Cycle Costing (LCC), a cost projection method typically associated with engineering, allows for the accurate prediction of the total costs a product will incur throughout its life-cycle. Meshing this technique with activity-based costing, risk management, and Monte Carlo analytical methods, Jan Emblemsvåg offers a broad range of businesses a new, more effective approach to cost management in Life-Cycle Costing.

By introducing uncertainty into its models, "Activity-Based LCC" offers managers the clarity of hindsight before costs are actually incurred. Among other features, Life-Cycle Costing includes:

* Three case studies that demonstrate how Activity-Based LCC affords superior cost management
* A step-by-step guide to LCC methodology
* Definitions of key terms
* A discussion of activity-based costing and risk management fundamentals
* An appendix with examples of Monte Carlo methods

Life-Cycle Costing provides controllers and cost managers an insider’s look at the next generation of cost management techniques.

  Fire Design of Concrete Structures
Posted by: ir_71 - 02-18-2011, 01:21 PM - Forum: Concrete - Replies (1)

Fire Design of Concrete Structures

Author: Editors: Pietro G. Gambarova, Roberto Felicetti, Alberto Meda, Paolo Riva | Size: 12.32 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: fib Task Group 4.3 | Year: 2004 | pages: 358 | ISBN: 888884791X

[Image: 76943046996338759407.jpg]

The often devastating effects that fires have on entire structures or single structural members have been lately brought back to the scene, because of the increasing road traffic (fires in the tunnels), structural complexity (tall buildings), extreme environmental conditions (off-shore platforms), terrorism and war-related events. In all these cases, what matters is not only the fire duration of a given structure, but also its safety and serviceability level after a fire, the latter having to do with structural repair and strengthening, which is often a must, like in historical and monumental buildings, as well as in vital infrastructures.
The increasing implications of fire-related effects in structural design have been lately dealt with in a few international research projects and committees’ activities. These initiatives are favoring the collection of new test data, the development of innovative theoretical models and computational tools, and the refinement and/or extension of the design rules, by means of code improvements and specific guidelines. Within this context, the workshop was meant to be focused on the engineering aspects of structural fire design, starting from the application of the most recent results that the scientific and technological community has brought on to the scene, in terms of materials properties and structural modeling .
The workshop was organized by the Task Group 4.3 “Fire Design of Concrete Structures” of fib (International Federation for Structural Concrete). Since it was established early in 2000, the scope of the group has been to consider the implications that fire has on conceptual design, in order to achieve a satisfactory balance between materials response and structural response.
A first workshop was held in Malta in March 2001, and in that occasion two Working Parties were formed, with the aim of preparing a set of guidelines on concrete modeling in fire conditions (WP 4.3.1), and on the global response of fire-exposed structures (WP 4.3.2).
The Task Group and the Working Parties count many experts coming from all around the world, all active in the field of concrete and R/C exposed to fire and high temperature. This was considered by the Organizing Committee as the best prerequisite for the success of the workshop, that has fostered also three remarkable pre- and post-events: the meeting of RILEM Committee TCHTC (Mechanical Concrete Properties at High Temperature, chaired by Prof. Ulrich Schneider), a seminar on the failure of concrete-like materials under extreme temperatures (given by Prof. Kaspar Willam) and the joint meeting of fib Task Group 4.3 (Fire Design of Concrete Structures, convened by Dr. Niels Peter Hoj) and fib Working Party 4.3.2 (Structural Behaviour, convened by Prof. Luc Taerwe). As recognized by the participants, the workshop came up to the expectations, with reference not only to the presentation of past and present activities on fire design, but also to the exchange of ideas and to possible joint research projects.
