Experimental design of physical aquifer models for evaluation of groundwater remediation strategies

Creator:

Humphrey, Mark D.

Abstract:

Groundwater resources have become seriously threatened due to improper use by industrial, municipal, and even public sectors. Widespread contamination of aquifer systems has jeopardized human health and the environment and methods for restoring these systems are needed. Biological and chemical in situ remediation, where contaminants are degraded within the natural...

Masters Thesis
Evaluation of the environmental conditioning system as a water sensitivity test for asphalt concrete mixtures

Creator:

Allen, Wendy L.

Abstract:

The Environmental Conditioning System (ECS) was designed to evaluate the water sensitivity of asphalt concrete mixtures. The ECS subjects asphalt concrete specimens to a series of conditioning cycles including water flow, elevated and/or lowered temperature, and repeated axial loading. The purpose of this research was to: (1) evaluate the ECS...

A kinetic model for dissolved gas transport in the presence of trapped gas

Creator:

Donaldson, Jeremy H.

Abstract:

Understanding the processes involved in the transport of dissolved gas plumes in groundwater aquifers is essential for comprehending the effect that these transport processes can have on site characterization and remedial design applications. Previous laboratory and field studies have indicated that dissolved gas transport in groundwater can be greatly affected...
