Large water tanks known as towing tanks, wave basins and cavitation tunnels, are used to determine the performance of ships, boats submarines at model-scale. They may also be for noise measurements but suffer from effects reverberation, which makes it difficult capture free field conditions necessary complete characterisation noise. This paper describes an adapted Image Source Model its use und...

on the Columbia River plateau, a semiarid region in south-central Washington (Fig. 1), the Hanford Site At the Hanford Site, highly radioactive and chemically aggressive served as a plutonium production facility for nuclear waste fluids have leaked from underground storage tanks into the vadose zone. This paper addresses hydrogeological issues at the weapons from 1944 to the end of the Cold War...

Larval habitats of Armigeres subalbatus were delineated in urban and rural areas of Pondicherry. Survey of various potential mosquito breeding habitats revealed that septic tanks were the typical breeding habitat in both areas and the proportion was significantly higher in urban areas. The productive status of septic tanks differed in different months and the overall proportion breeding Ar. sub...

Seismic safety of liquid storage tanks is of considerable importance due to its application in different industries. In Iran, most of these storage tanks are designed based on API650 code provisions. Despite designing tanks according to API standard, the lesson learned from previous earthquakes, shows different kind of damage occurring on them. This study is an investigation on evaluating diffe...
