The Hydraulic and Geo-Environmental Behavior of the Sub-Pavement Environment

The paper considers the environmental properties and possible impacts of a wide range of candidate non-geologic, i.e. “alternative”, materials for pavement construction. Previous studies had shown that, depending on the material, they were likely to perform adequately from a mechanical point-of-view when used as-is, lightly stabilized and selfcemented. Thus the materials were subjected, in thes...

Geo-environmental Studies of Manipur River Basin

The problems of the environmental management in river basins are treated as periphery problems. Though, these areas are often included in great reserves of natural resources of the nation, their contribution to the main land is quite often in terms of forest, water, wildlife, tourism and leisure industries. Forest and forest eco-systems of north-east India in general and Manipur in particular, ...

Global View of Engineering Geology and the Environment

This paper explains a procedure for the choice of ballast modules used for the design of direct continuous foundation in karst terrain. The presence of dangerous cavities is introduced in this procedure thereby evaluating risk failure. It also provides pertinent guidelines to direct the geotechnical survey of the terrain. Chimneys: both the low points in the folds as well as the softened clay c...

Geo-Coded Environment for Integrated Smart Systems

Smart Systems provide novel enabling functionalities and as such are currently a driving force behind product innovation. Smart Systems are, therefore, crucial for the competitiveness of companies and entire industry sectors. Geo-tagging and smart spaces are two promising directions in modern mobile market. Geo-tagging allows to markup any kind of data by geographical coordinates and time. This...
