Indiscriminate land disposal of hazardous chemicals and industrial
wastes, in the due course of time, causes contamination of the
ground water regime as well as the subsurface soil layers. Various
complex geo-chemical processes and mechanisms control the transport
of these contaminants when they come in contact with the soil-water
system.The transport of contaminants is often predicted with the
help of mathematical models dealing with a set of governing
equations, which are solved using either analytical or numerical
methods. However, input parameters for these models can be obtained
by conducting either controlled field experiments or laboratory
column tests. To overcome the limitations associated with the
laboratory and field scale experiments, geotechnical centrifuge
modelling has been adopted by researchers and engineers. This book
highlights such a research program conducted using a geotechnical
centrifuge, and the instrumentation and the testing methodology
adopted for monitoring contaminant transport through geotechnical
centrifuge models. Also, it features, Finite Element modelling to
valid the centrifuge test results. It may be a useful guide to an
aspiring researcher.
Scope of Mutual Funds in Global Scenario: An Indian PerspectiveThe
aim of getting higher income has always persuaded mankind to
develop more and more avenues of investments.One of the financial
innovations which really help the small investors to earn wealth is
the concept and design of mutual funds. Earlier it is felt that the
share or commodity trading is reserved for rich and elite. Any
investor now big or small, retail or non retail can now participate
and play his bets on almost any asset through the use of mutual
funds. This book describes the history and the concept of mutual
fund. It also discusses the important advantages, disadvantages and
most commonly used classification of mutual funds. Mutual fund
industry at the global level, in United States i.e. largest mutual
fund market and India is suitably discussed. Structure, marketing
and distribution of mutual funds in India are also discussed in
relevant sections. In last, this book discusses justification of
the study and finally concludes on purpose of study with
prospective results &recommendations.
This volume is fifth part of the five-part set on bioenergy
research. This edited volume provides sustainable solution for all
existing roadblocks in commercial bioenergy production. The book
focuses on different types of obstacles involved in various
bioenergy operations with detail remedy of the issue in a
sustainable way. In spite of having number of potential advantages,
all available bioenergy options are still far from smooth practical
applicability, due to which they are still in pipeline phase to
replace the fossil fuels. This book brings together the integrative
approach to the readers, to connect with more viable bioenergy type
on commercial scale, the existing issues and the feasible
approaches to eliminate the bottlenecks in the process. Further,
the book also uncovers the untouched area of bioenergy production
technology by bringing forth unconventional methods, processes and
parameters, which have scope to enhance biofuel production
technology by "Lab to Land" methods. The book highlights aspect
which are less studied or are very new in their industrial
application of bioenergy production. The book presents relevant
reading material for global researchers, academic institutions,
research students, teachers, scientist as well as industries. Other
four volumes of this set explore basic concepts, latest progress,
commercial opportunities and bio-waste to energy conversion.
Without mathematics no science would survive. This especially
applies to the engineering sciences which highly depend on the
applications of mathematics and mathematical tools such as
optimization techniques, finite element methods, differential
equations, fluid dynamics, mathematical modelling, and simulation.
Neither optimization in engineering, nor the performance of
safety-critical system and system security; nor high assurance
software architecture and design would be possible without the
development of mathematical applications. De Gruyter Series on the
Applications of Mathematics in Engineering and Information Sciences
(AMEIS) focusses on the latest applications of engineering and
information technology that are possible only with the use of
mathematical methods. By identifying the gaps in knowledge of
engineering applications the AMEIS series fosters the international
interchange between the sciences and keeps the reader informed
about the latest developments.
