Suitable landfill site selection is a significant step in the integrated management of solid waste. Because of some dangerous industrial waste, landfill site selection is more important. The selection process should be considered different criteria. The purpose of this study was to determine the appropriate location of industrial waste landfill Razi complex by using Analytical Hierarchy Process...

The estimation of transmitter location based on radio frequency reception at a single site has long been a challenge. The standard technique for location estimation has typically used an active local vertical transmitter (ionosonde) to characterize the local ionosphere for propagation path modeling. A technique that is totally passive and yields a more comprehensive estimate of the propagation ...

The Radar Remote Sensing Group in University of Cape Town has developed accurate modelling method that uses 3D maps of the Western Cape to predict the signal path loss between a transmitter, aircraft and a receiver in the Passive Coherent Location (PCL) system. The core objective of this thesis is to investigate the use of this modelling method to optimise the location of receivers in order to ...

The GABAA receptor is a target of many general anesthetics. The low affinity of general anesthetics has complicated the search for the location of anesthetic binding sites. Attention has focused on two pairs of residues near the extracellular ends of the M2 and M3 membrane-spanning segments, alpha1Ser270/beta2Asn265 (15' M2) and alpha1Ala291/beta2Met286 (M3). In the 4-A resolution acetylcholine...

Community corrections centers (CCCs) are known to be an effective criminal justice strategy. However, location of CCCs is challenging: residents of potential destination communities often regard them as “undesirable” land uses. We develop a methodology by which a small set of feasible CCC locations may be identified from a larger initial set using data on neighborhood characteristics and curren...
