A statistical approach for electric taxiing requirements for regional turboprop aircraft
(2023)Abstract : Electric motorization of the landing gear appears to be one of the alternative solutions to reduce fuel burn, CO2 emissions, and noise during the taxi phase. Because turboprop aircraft operate on short routes, ... -
Exploration of rank order coding with spiking neural networks for speech recognition
(2005)Speech recognition is very difficult in the context of noisy and corrupted speech. Most conventional techniques need huge databases to estimate speech (or noise) density probabilities to perform recognition. We discuss the ... -

Évaluation comparée du dégagement de méthane sur un lieu d’enfouissement sanitaire
(2008)"Les changements climatiques vont de toute évidence perdurer bien après le protocole de Kyoto. Par conséquent, les différents gaz à effet de serre (GES) ont une grande importance pour tous les humains et l’auront pour ... -
Resíduo do processo de reciclagem de papel como material alternativo para aplicações em geotecnia ambiental
Other titre : Paper by-product as an alternative material for geo-environmental applications(2009)Resumo: Para fabricar papel a partir de aparas é preciso separar as fibras secundárias de celulose dos agregados e contaminantes do papel. Devido às limitações do processo, até 30 % das fibras são perdidas na forma de ... -
Análise por componentes principais para o volume de biogás gerado em aterro sanitário e a correlação com variáveis físico-químicas
Other titre : Principal component analysis (PCA) to the volume of biogas generated in landfill and the correlation with physico-chemical parameters(2016)Resumo: O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a estrutura de correlação do volume de biogás gerado com as variáveis físico-químicas umidade, pH, alcalinidade, demanda química de oxigênio (DQO) e sólidos totais ... -
Potencial de geração de biogás a partir da análise de parâmetros físico-químicos de resíduos sólidos municipais co digeridos com dejeto suíno
Other titre : Biogas generation potential by the analysis of the physical-chemical parameters of municipal solid waste co-digested with swine manure(2016)Resumo: O presente estudo avaliou a influência de parâmetros físico-químicos na previsão de geração de biogás a partir da co-digestão da fração orgânica de resíduos sólidos urbanos (FORSU) inoculados com dejeto suíno nas ... -
Geração de biogás a partir da co-digestão anaeróbia de resíduos sólidos municipais com dejeto suíno

Other titre : Assessment of physicochemical parameters in Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Degradation of different ages and their relationship with biogas generation(2017)Resumo: O presente trabalho avaliou a influência de parâmetros físico-químicos na degradação de resíduos sólidos urbanos (RSU) de diferentes idades (fresco e 2 anos) bem como a sua relação com a geração de biogás. Os ... -
Biogas generation potential of anaerobic co-digestion of municipal solid wastes and livestock manures
(2018)Abstract: This study evaluated the potential of biogas generation of the fresh organic fraction of municipal solid wastes (OFMSW) inoculated with swine manure and cattle manure, based on the volatile solids content obtained ... -
Comparação entre metodologias USEPA e IPCC para estimativa teórica de produção de biogás em aterro municipal
Other titre : Comparison between USEPA and IPCC methodologies for theoretical estimation of biogas production in landfill(2018)Resumo: O aproveitamento energético do biogás de aterros sanitários é uma alternativa sustentável para a disposição final de gases residuais. A estimativa teórica da produção desse biogás torna-se uma ferramenta muito útil ... -
Suction profiles and scale factors for unsaturated flow under increased gravitational field
(2004)Abstract: Scale factors for centrifuge modelling have been traditionally defined using dimensional analysis concepts. This is the case, for example, of centrifuge modelling of unsaturated water flow. However, scale factors ... -
Determination of the diffusion coefficient of oxygen for a cover system including a pulp and paper by-product
(2004)ABSTRACT: Among the several solutions that have been proposed to curb the problem posed by the generation of acid rock drainage (ARD), the placement of covers with capillary barrier effect (CCBE) has received particular ... -
Determination of the soil water characteristic curve of highly compressible materials: Case study of pulp and paper by-product
(2004)Abstract: A technique was developed for the determination of various points of the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC)—including the air entry value (AEV)—of compressible materials from one single test. The testing ... -
Behaviour of tire shred – sand mixtures
(2004)Abstract: Tire shreds and tire shred-soil mixtures can be used as alternative backfill material in many geotechnical applications. The reuse of tire shreds may not only address growing environmental and economic concerns, ... -
