Presentation / Conference Contribution
Datta, S., Zekkos, D., Fei, X., & McDougall, J. (2017). Experimental Assessment and Modelling of Coupled Biochemical-Physical-Mechanical Biodegradation Process of a Municipal Solid Waste Sample from Michigan. In Proceedings of the 2nd Symposium on Couple

Municipal solid waste (MSW) is biodegradable in landfills under anaerobic conditions. The evolution of the biochemical, physical and mechanical characteristics of MSW are interdependent and is investigated first through an experiment and subsequently...

Review and application of a settlement model for landfills (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Esteban-Altabella, J., McDougall, J., Colomer-Mendoza, F., Gallardo, A., & Edo-Alcon, N. (2017). Review and application of a settlement model for landfills. In International Waste and Landfill Symposium Proceedings

The geotechnical behavior and settlement in landfills has been changing for many years. This behavior in fact depends on many factors and, therefore, making forecasts is complicated due to the effect of biodegradation. In order to solve this issue, m...
