Evaluation of slope stability, especially in the absence of a proper bed such as marine soils, is one of the most important issues in geotechnical engineering. Using geogrid layers to enhance the strength and stability of embankments is regarded as a commendable stabilization method. On the other hand, groundwater level erratically fluctuates in coastal areas. Therefore, the aim of this research is to study the effects of groundwater level changes on stability of a geogrid-reinforced slope on loose marine soils in Qeshm Island, Iran. At first, geotechnical properties of the site were obtained by comprehensive series of geotechnical laboratory and in situ tests. Then, by simultaneous changes of groundwater level and several parameters such as embankment slope, loading, geogrid length, geogrid number, and tensile strength of geogrid, different characteristics such as embankment safety factor (SF), vertical and horizontal displacements at embankment top and embankment base were studied. It was observed that groundwater level had significant effects on behavior of the embankment. For most of the observations, by decreasing the groundwater level, the displacements decreased and consequently safety factor increased. Increasing the length, number, and tensile strength of geogrid led to the reduction of displacements and an increase in the safety factor. 相似文献

Mixing of heated water discharged from outfalls is an efficient and effective method of waste disposal in coastal areas. Discharging the heated water with large quantities of mass flux generally requires multi-port diffusers. In recent years, using numerical models to predict the plume behavior has received attention from many researchers, who are interested in design of outfalls. This study reports the development and application of an artificial neural network model for prediction of initial dilution of multi-port tee diffusers. Several networks with different structures were trained and tested using error back propagation algorithm. Statistical error measures showed that a three layer network with 9 neurons in the hidden layer is skillful in prediction of initial dilution and the outputs are in good agreement (R = 0.97) with experimental results. Furthermore, the sensitivity analyses showed that the width of the equivalent slot of the diffuser is the most important parameter in the estimation of initial dilution. 相似文献

Potential of natural bed soil in adsorption of heavy metals in industrial waste landfill 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
M. Esmaeili Bidhendi M.Sc. A. R. Karbassi Ph.D. A. Baghvand Ph.D M. Saeedi Ph.D A. H. Pejman M.Sc. 《International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology》2010,7(3):545-552
Development of higher welfare could not be realized unless by energy consumption and other natural resources. Growth of industrial complexes has shown an unprecedented trend during recent years. Many of these towns have no treatment systems for the industrial wastes leachates. Besides, the chemical composition of wastes in such complexes varies considerably due to the different kinds of industries. It is endeavored in the present work to study the natural potential of soil to treat leachate of such industrial wastes. For this purpose, the Aliabad industrial complex in Tehran — Garmsar road was selected as the study area. The potential of adsorption of elements such as nickel, copper, cadmium, zinc, chromium, lead and manganese was investigated. The results indicated that the soil potential to adsorb heavy metals (except for manganese) was very high (95 %) in the adsorption of heavy metals (except for manganese). Further, chemical partitioning studies revealed that heavy metals are associated with various soil phases such as loosely bonded ions, sulfide and organics to various extents. Among the mentioned soil phases, one can deduce that major portion of metal contaminants is absorbed as loosely bonded ions. Organic bond and sulfide bond are in the 2nd and 3rd positions of metal contaminants adsorption, respectively. The results of the present study apparently showed that soil column had ample capacity to adsorb metal contaminants. Thus, determination of soil potential in adsorption of heavy metals during site selection is as important criteria. 相似文献

In the present study, the removal of dissolved and colloidal Cd, Co, Cu, Ni and Zn in Arvand River water during estuarine mixing with the Persian Gulf water is investigated. The flocculation process was investigated for a series of mixtures with salinities ranging from 0.48 to 30.3^. The flocculation rates were indicative of the non-conservative behavior of studied metals during estuarine mixing. Rapid flocculation in the low salinity regimes was observed. The order of the final flocculation rate of metals in the river water was as follows: Co (91.2%)> Cd (86.9%)> Zn (83%)> Cu (75.2%)> Ni (74.3%). Salinity, pH, EC and dissolved oxygen do not govern the flocculation of metals during estuarine mixing. The results of the present investigation show that estuarine processes can be considered as an effective mechanism in self purification of colloidal metals that are anthropogenically introduced into the fresh water ecosystem. 相似文献

Accurate prediction of uplift pile displacement is necessary to ensure appropriate structural and serviceability performance of civil projects. On the other hand, in recent years, machine-learning models have been applied to many geotechnical-engineering problems, with some degrees of success. The scope of this research includes three main stages: (1) the compilation of load–displacement data sets, obtained from the published literature, (2) analysis of machine learning models that predict the uplift pile displacement based on the cone penetration test data, and the relative importance of input parameters that have been evaluated using senility analysis by the artificial neural network, In addition, this paper also examines the different selection of input parameters and internal network parameters to obtain the optimum model, (3) A parametric study has also been performed for the input parameters to study the consistency of the suggested model. The statistical parameters and parametric study obtained in this research show the superiority of the current model. It is demonstrated that machine learning models such as ANN and GP models outperform the traditional methods, and provide accurate uplift pile displacement predictions. 相似文献

In this paper, a novel adsorbent developed by means of granulating of natural zeolite nanoparticles (i.e., clinoptilolite) was evaluated for possible removal of the petroleum monoaromatics (i.e., benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene, BTEX). To do this, the natural zeolite was ground to produce nanosized particulate, then modified by two cationic surfactants and granulated. The effect of various parameters including temperature, initial pH of the solution, total dissolved solids (TDS), and concentration of a competitive substance (i.e., methyl tert‐butyl ether, MTBE) were studied and optimized using a Taguchi statistical approach. The results ascertained that initial pH of the solution was the most effective parameter. However, the low pH (acidic) was favorable for BTEX adsorption onto the developed adsorbents. In this study, the experimental parameters were optimized and the best adsorption condition by determination of effective factors was chosen. Based on the S/N ratio, the optimized conditions for BTEX removal were temperature of 40°C, initial pH of 3, TDS of 0 mg/L, and MTBE concentration of 100 µg/L. At the optimized conditions, the uptake of each BTEX compounds reached to more than 1.5 mg/g of adsorbents. 相似文献

Impact of major organophosphate pesticides used in agriculture to surface water and sediment quality (Southern Caspian Sea basin,Haraz River) 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0

Organophosphate pesticides are compounds that are not only toxic to both humans and wildlife but also difficult to degrade
under natural environmental conditions. In Iran, agricultural practices are strongly dependent on the use of pesticides due
to climatic and soil conditions, thus posing a potential risk to groundwater quality standards. Evaluating the concentration
of organophosphate pesticides namely diazinon, fenitrothion, dichlorvos, ethion, profenofos, malathion and azinphos methyl
in water samples in May (low precipitation rate), December (high precipitation rate) as well as the concentration in sediments
along the Haraz River is taken into consideration in this study. Generally the pesticides concentration in water samples are
relatively higher in May in comparison with that in December; this fact may be due to two major reasons: the first reason
is attributed to the prompt raining after the treatment period of most orchards and dry farming lands that will terminate
in more wash out of such pesticides towards the branches and main river channel, while the second reason may be considered
as the less river water dilution rate in May because of lower precipitation rate. Furthermore, the relatively higher concentrations
in downstream stations may be contributed to more intensified agricultural (specially rice paddies), urban and rural land
uses in this region in comparison with upstream areas which contain mainly dry farming, grazing lands and orchards with relatively
lower loads of pesticides. Additionally, as the Henry’s law constant of all pesticides considered in this study are relatively
low, volatilization may not be regarded as an important route of dissipation. Diazinon, azinphos methyl and dichlorvos showed
the highest water concentrations in comparison with other pesticides that may be justified by their extended use within the
basin during last decades. Based on the chemical properties as well as remarkably higher values in sediment samples in comparison
with water ones, it is concluded that the two pesticides, ethion and fenitrothion, persist in the environment due to non-degradable
tendencies. Although the concentration of mentioned pesticides is not so high in the water samples, more precautions must
be considered in their future use. Regarding the sorption coefficient variation alongside the river, the higher values in
upstream and central parts may be attributed to the higher potential of different types of erosion regarding deeper slopes
and also sand, gravel and carbonate mining activities at the banks and also river bed in such regions which is considered
as an anthropogenic disturbance. In case of central parts, in addition to mentioned reasons, the existence of coal outcrops
in the geologic texture of the study area may also be considered as a key role in augmentation of the sorption coefficient.
Finally, the dominant clayey and loamy soils containing more organics may be attributed as the major reason of sorption tendency
in downstream. 相似文献

The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data is used to estimate the rate of ice mass variability over
Greenland. To do this, monthly GRACE level 2 Release-04 (RL04) data from three different processing centers, Center for Space
Research (CSR), German Research Center for Geosciences (GFZ) and Jet Propulsion Laboratories (JPL) were used during the period
April 2002 to February 2010. It should be noted that some months are missing for all three data sets. Results of computations
provide a mass decrease of −163 ± 20 Gigaton per year (Gt/yr) based on CSR-RL04 data, −161 ± 21 Gt/yr based on GFZ-RL04 data
and −84 ± 26 Gt/yr based on JPL RL04.1. The results are derived by the application of a non-isotropic filter whose degree
of smoothing corresponds to a Gaussian filter with a radius of 340 km. Striping effects in the GRACE data, C20 effect, and leakage effects are taken into the consideration in the computations. There is some significant spread of the
results among different processing centers of GRACE solutions; however, estimates achieved in this study are in agreement
with the results obtained from alternative GRACE solutions. 相似文献
