Sustainable landfill: the role of fail-safe engineering for landfill aftercare. (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hall, D. H., McDougall, J., Drury, D., Blakey, N., Braithwaite, P., & Rosevear, A. (2007). Sustainable landfill: the role of fail-safe engineering for landfill aftercare.

The route to sustainable landfill while adhering to the Landfill Directive requires that ultimately, the waste site will reach equilibrium status. Chemical equilibrium is part of the requirements, but hydraulic equilibrium must also play a role. The...

Assessment of landfill settlement data for evaluation of a hydro-bio-mechanical settlement model. (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Needham, A., Jones, D. R. V., McDougall, J., Dixon, N., Braithwaite, P., & Rosevear, A. (2007). Assessment of landfill settlement data for evaluation of a hydro-bio-mechanical settlement model.

A hydro-bio-mechanical (HBM) model of waste degradation has been under development for several years to simulate the actual processes involved in the settlement of landfilled wastes. The objective of this current research is the further development o... Read More about Assessment of landfill settlement data for evaluation of a hydro-bio-mechanical settlement model..

A hydro-bio-mechanical model for settlement and other behaviour in landfilled waste. (2007)

A conceptual framework for the analysis of settlement and other processes in landfilled waste in relation to coupled hydraulic, biodegradation and mechanical behaviour is presented. The hydraulic model is an unsaturated flow model. The biodegradation... Read More about A hydro-bio-mechanical model for settlement and other behaviour in landfilled waste..
