The role of hydrodynamic conditions and pH on algal-rich water fouling of ultrafiltration by Zhang, Yan., Tang, Chuyang Y., Li, Guibai.

“…This paper also studied an important consideration of aeration in algal fouling: shear force. Besides alleviating membrane fouling, the shear produced by the bubbling should take responsible for the breakup of cells and the release of intracellular organic matters which caused the rate of the TMP increase closed to that without aeration. …”

Geobarrier system for use in underground structure by Leong, Eng Choon, Zhai, Qian, Tan, Sze Tiong, Wang, Chien Looi, Lim, Vincent Han, Kew, Jernice Huiling, Seow, Wei Kiong, Wong, Johnny Liang Heng, Rahardjo, Harianto, Satyanaga, Alfrendo, Gofar, Nurly, Mohamed, Haneena

“…On the other hand, the negative pore-water pressure contributes additional shear strength to the unsaturated soil. As water infiltrates into the slope, pore-water pressure in the slope increases (matric suction decreases), and the additional shear strength due to matric suction will decrease or even disappear, causing the slope to be more susceptible to failure. …”

Performance of asphalt mixtures modified with nano-eggshell powder by Zghair Chfat, Alattafi Hadi, Haryati, Yaacob, Nurul Hidayah, Mohd Kamaruddin, Al-Saffar, Zaid Hazim, Putra Jaya, Ramadhansyah

“…To achieve this, asphalt mixtures containing 0% (control), 5%, and 9% NESP were developed, and their mechanical properties were investigated through various tests such as moisture damage, Marshall immersion stability, resilient modulus, dynamic creep, double-punch shear, water immersion, and wheel tracking. The results showed that NESP reduced the moisture susceptibility of the mixtures by increasing their tensile strength ratio. …”

Large eddy simulations of turbulent circular wall jets by Zhang, Shuai, Law, Adrian Wing-Keung, Zhao, Bing

“…Overall, the study shows that LES coupling with proper near-wall modelling can simulate both the kinematic and mixing characteristics of the turbulent wall jet in a satisfactory manner, and the accuracy is superior to the RANS models with enhanced wall functions for this three-dimensional wall-bounded shear flow. The advantages can be attributed directly to the better simulations of the anisotropic jet spreading near the wall.…”
