Reducing the energy consumption of water distribution networks has never had more significance. The greatest energy savings can be obtained by carefully scheduling the operations of pumps. Schedules can be defined either implicitly, in terms of other... Read More about Representations and evolutionary operators for the scheduling of pump operations in water distribution networks..

Settlement-The Short and the Long of it (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McDougall, J. (2008, March). Settlement-The Short and the Long of it. Presented at International Symposium on Waste Mechanics

Total settlement in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills can be considerable, from 25% to 50% of original fill thickness (Bjarngard and Edgers, 1990). Some occurs very quickly, i.e. during the filling phase (or short term), but there remains a signi... Read More about Settlement-The Short and the Long of it.
