Inundation of dried emergent vegetation that has been knocked down using heavy equipment is a vegetation management strategy that provides an inexpensive source of supplemental organic carbon to stimulate denitrification, a process important for nitrate removal in constructed treatment wetlands. The abundance of larval mosquitoes (Culex sp. and Culiseta sp.) in multipurpose constructed wetlands...

In this article discusses the relevance of development and creation a multipurpose single-bucket loader with transforming working body reduction branches national economy, where machines equipment dump bucket bodies are successfully operated when performing basic construction installation budget-forming works. Also, an analysis difference between adapting fundamental differences is given, since...

Advances in computer, surveying, and mapping technology have had a marked impact on the economic barriers to multipurpose land information systems. This has opened the way for institutional innovations that may help to achieve the data sharing and spatial registration objectives identified in the I960 National Research Council report on Multipurpose Cadastre.

Training of multipurpose workers in mental health is an essential component in the implementation of the National Mental Health Program. This study examines the efficacy of a six day training program and the changes in knowledge, management skills and attitudes of multipurpose workers with regard to mental disorders.

Alpine rivers have been channelized by significant river training works in the past two centuries and are now disconnected from their natural environment. In addition, their flow regime is often affected by hydropower plant operation. Also the risk of flood damages is increasing continuously due to urbanization requiring additional flood protection measures. Nevertheless, such trained rivers st...

We present a novel approach for solving different design problems related to single products in multipurpose batch plants: the selection of one production line out of several available, additional investment into an existing line or plant, and grass-root design of a new plant. Multiple objectives are considered in these design problems. Pareto-optimal solutions are generated by means of a Tabu ...
