An overview is given of finite volume central schemes for the numerical solution of systems of conservation and balance laws. Well balanced central schemes on staggered grid for the Saint-Venant model or river flow are considered. A scheme which is well balanced for channels with variable cross section is introduced. Finally, a scheme which preserves non static equilibria is introduced, and som...

Below-grade stormwater storage tunnels are designed to provide relief for collection networks during intense rain events. Air must be evacuated as the tunnel fills and, depending on the system geometry, the air may become pressurized. This research presents an investigation on various ways that the air pressurization influences the water flow. The investigation used an experimental apparatus co...

In  this  research,  biological  removal  of  phenol  and  orthonitrophenol  (2NP)  pollutants  from wastewater  by  continuous  moving  bed  sequencing  batch  reactor  (MSBR)  was  studied.  The experiments were conducted in various operational conditions to find out the optimum level of the significant  parameters.  Best  performance  for  removal  of  Phenols  was  achieved  when  parameter...

Peregrine Laziosi (1265-1345), an Italian priest, became the patron saint of cancer patients when the tumour in his left leg miraculously disappeared after he developed a fever. Elevated body temperature can cause tumours to regress and sensitizes cancer cells to agents that break DNA. Why hyperthermia blocks the repair of broken chromosomes by changing the way that the DNA damage checkpoint ki...
