Performance evaluation of landfills with the HELP (hydrologic evaluation of landfill performance) model: Izmit case study
Yalcin, F; Demirer, Göksel Niyazi (2002-10-01)
Landfilling is the most economical and commonly used final disposal method of municipal solid and hazardous wastes. Leachate, which is the inevitable output of the landfills, may cause serious pollution problems if not properly handled. In this study, the hydrologic evaluation of landfill performance (HELP) model was used to examine the performance of the hazardous waste lot (HWL) of Izmit Industrial and Domestic Solid Waste Sanitary Landfill for three different cases. These cases were the (1) existing desi...
Performance Evaluation of Internal Drains of Earthen Dams
Çalamak, Melih; Yanmaz, Ali Melih (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2018-12-01)
Seepage is always expected in earthen dams because they are made of porous materials. However, it should be always under control and its amount and pore-water pressures should be kept below acceptable limits. This can be satisfied by installing internal drains. This study reviews the characteristics of blanket, chimney, and toe drains and assesses their suitability and effectiveness for various material types and geometric characteristics in separate cases. Numerical simulations are conducted for steady-sta...
Performance evaluation of waste rock dump cover systems in different climate zones of Turkey
Baysal, Barış Can; Yılmaz, Koray Kamil; Department of Geological Engineering (2022-11-24)
One of the tasks to be considered during the closure stage of mining is the closure of the waste rock dump (WRD). A suitable top cover system shall be applied for closure to mitigate the impacts of mine wastes on the environment and human health. The regulatory requirements for closure activities vary from one country to another. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performances of cover system types, including the one that is described in Turkish Mining Waste Regulation (TMWR), for different climat...
Performance Evaluation of Building Detection and Digital Surface Model Extraction Algorithms: Outcomes of the PRRS 2008 Algorithm Performance Contest
Aksoy, Selim; Ozdemir, Bahadir; Eckert, Sandra; Kayitakire, Francois; Pesarasi, Martino; Aytekin, Orsan; Borel, Christoph C.; Cech, Jan; Christophe, Emmanuel; Duzgun, Sebnem; Erener, Arzu; Ertugay, Kivanc; Hussain, Ejaz; Inglada, Jordi; Lefevre, Sebastien; Ok, Oezguen; San, Dilek Koc; Sara, Radim; Shan, Jie; et.al. (2008-01-01)
This paper presents the initial results of the Algorithm Performance Contest that was organized as part of the 5th IAPR Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing (PRRS 2008). The focus of the 2008 contest was automatic building detection and digital surface model (DSM) extraction. A QuickBird data set With manual ground truth was used for building detection evaluation, and a stereo Ikonos data set with a highly accurate reference DSM was used for DSM extraction evaluation. Nine submissions were rece...
Performance analysis of a solar chimney power plant for rural areas in Nigeria
Okoye, Chiemeka Onyeka; Taylan, Onur (2017-04-01)
Diverse renewable energy technologies are urgently needed, especially for developing countries. This paper aims to create awareness of solar chimney power plants (SCPP) as a viable and sustainable alternative in rural communities with limited or no access to the grid. The study considers site-specific hourly meteorological data in assessing the feasibility of SCPP in seven selected regions in Nigeria. A theoretical model was established for power output, levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) and avoided carb...
