Developing an Integrated Simulation Model of Bayesian-networks to Estimate the Completion Cost of a Project under Risk: Case Study on Phase 13 of South Pars Gas Field Development Projects

Objective: The aim of this paper is to propose a new approach to assess the aggregated impact of risks on the completion cost of a construction project. Such an aggregated impact includes the main impacts of risks as well as the impacts of interactions caused by dependencies among them. Methods: In this study, Monte Carlo simulation and Bayesian Networks methods are combined to present a frame...

Impact of copper mines and smelter on groundwater quality (Case Study: Rajasthan State in India)

Rajasthan is one of the main mineral potential state of India. During the last 30 years it has witnessed enormous expansion of mining industries, but mining of most of the minor minerals coupled with changing climate has posed serious problems to the environmental fabric in the state, apart from base metal beneficiation plants. Groundwater is also being polluted day-by-day by effluents generate...

Production of Daphnia epiphium, A method for mass production and rapid revival

A new and suitable breeding method for inducing asexual or sexual reproduction (opium pneumonia) of Daphnia Magna is described in the laboratory. Drying and dehydration cause the production of epiphium epiphium with rapid hatching. In the present study, the effect of many different parameters such as pesticides, light periods and light intensity, sediments, culture oxygen levels, dark period, a...
