Assessing the Utility of Hydrologic Model Diagnostics for Decision Support
(University of Waterloo, 2018-11-27)Theoretical, computational and experimental advances have led to easier access to more complex and robust hydrologic models. These hydrologic models may be used to support decision making by water managers and stakeholders. ... -
Coupled Numerical Moelling Of Vacuum Consolidation With Nonuniform Pore Pressure Distribution
(University of Waterloo, 2021-09-27)In this study, Biot’s type hydro-mechanical coupled numerical models are used to examine ground improvement of fine-grained soft soil deposits using prefabricated vertical drains (PVD) and vacuum assisted consolidation ... -
Development and Evaluation of A Framework for Linking Traffic Simulation and Emission Estimation Models
(University of Waterloo, 2016-01-07)The need to understand the effect of policy decisions on environmental indicators is strong. The emergence of new technologies brought about by connected vehicle technologies, which are difficult to evaluate in field ... -
An Integrated Design Approach for Improving Drinking Water Ozone Disinfection Treatment Based on Computational Fluid Dynamics
(University of Waterloo, 2007-01-22)Ozonation is currently considered as one of the most effective microbial disinfection technologies due to its powerful disinfection capacity and reduction in levels of chlorinated disinfection by-products (DBP). However, ... -
Modelling Tile Drains Under Present and Future Climate Conditions
(University of Waterloo, 2008-12-19)Modelling the impact of climate change on the water from agricultural areas on a regional scale over a 40 year time period is the subject of this thesis. The Grand River watershed spans approximately 290 km with an area ... -
Nonlinear Macromechanical Analysis of Polymeric Materials
(University of Waterloo, 2017-05-19)A new methodology for predicting the short term and long term responses of viscoelastic and viscoplastic materials is developed in this research. The methodology aims to predict the behaviour of viscoelastic/viscoplastic ...
