This paper is devoted to the study of Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical (THM) responses a porous rock with low permeability under thermal loading in context deep geological disposal radioactive waste. To this aim, numerical simulations benchmark exercise hypothetical high-level waste (HLW) repository were performed. considered as host formation Callovo-Oxfordian claystone (COx), which has been selected f...

6.1 Best Practices in Operation & Maintenance of Hydro Power stations shall be such that by following such procedures, the downtime of individual generating Unit & Plant should be minimum. The operational reliability of the generating units of the hydro power stations shall be such that whenever the grid demands, it should be available for generation. Some of the aspects, which can be taken int...

Power Generation from Renewable energy sources like wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydro is predominant now days and among the renewable energy sources, small hydro and wind energy have the ability to complement each other. For Power generation by small or micro hydro as well as wind systems, the use of squirrel-cage induction generators (SCIGs) is mostly adopted. As regards in recent ye...

In this paper we report U-Pb zircon and titanite data and interpreted ages for sixteen rocks (Figure 1) sampled in support of regional mapping projects conducted by the British Columbia Geological Survey Branch during the midto late-1990s. Each sample is reported with geological context, interpretation of U-Pb data and significance of the date. The U-Pb results are also displayed on standard co...

In the title compound, C(21)H(18)BrNO, both heterocyclic rings, viz. the hydro-pyridine ring and the adjacent hydro-furan ring, adopt envelope conformations. These two heterocycles make a dihedral angle of 37.3 (1)°. The dihedral angle between the hydro-pyridine and benzene rings is 69.6 (1)°. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are linked by pairs of inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, formi...
