Background: The introduction of industrial wind turbines into quiet rural en-vironments in Ontario, Canada has resulted in complaints about environmental noise and adverse health effects. Ontario has a process whereby residents can report noise to government. Official government records of Incident Reports/Complaints submitted by residents living near operating wind turbine installations were obtained through a Freedom of Informat ...

The assessment of cement partially replaced with calcium carbide waste pow-der, CCWP and bamboo leaf ash, BLA on the strength of concrete made with cement was investigated. Oxide composition analysis of CCWP and BLA con-firm their status as non-pozzolanic material rich in CaO component and poz-zolanic materials, respectively. Setting times, slump, compressive and micro-structure analysis tests were c ...

Increased demand for traditional timber species has led to the depletion of large areas of Ghana’s forest cover. Sustainable forest management requires that measures are put in place to minimize forest depletion through the utili-zation of lesser-known species, reforestation, setting margins for annual al-lowable cut, banning export of round logs, conservation of biological diversity and promotion of efficient wood-based industry. ...

Building Information Modeling (BIM) provides a new
design method and new career direction—architectural planning. Building
planners generally propose project components and overall ideas based on
project proposals and basic design information including: space requirements,
space scale, space combination, usage, environmental protection, structural
modeling, equipment systems, construction area ...

The microalloying method is most widely used in the production
process of high strength steel bars. However, its cost factor has become the
main bottleneck for its difficult promotion. The incomplete structure of
analytic hierarchy model is established in this paper to identify the primary
and secondary elements affecting the performance and investigate the influence
mechanism. The dominance numbers are e ...

The results of the
experiment of dewatering analysis carried out on a municipal sludge were
recorded. Similarly, analytical mathematics was used to develop an equation to
calculate volume of filtrate. The two results were plotted in graphs and
comparisons were made. The results show very close relationships between the
two results. In fact in most cases the two results were almost overlapping. For
example after 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 hou ...

In the days of the May Day vacation, I made 25 “Internet
Radio”, designed his own installation. On the basis of the digital simulation
theory, I succeeded in making a radio that could listen to more than 2000 radio
stations. It should be a national patent. We can listen to more than ten local
radio stations and have thousands of network stations ready for each teacher.
Sending one is currently ...

The way of cooperation between government and social
capital is widely used in the field of infrastructure construction. According
to relevant data, the social capital participating in PPP (Public Private
Partnership) project
is divided into three categories, and the strengths and weaknesses are
analyzed; the evaluation index system of social capital is constructed from
four aspects of financial ability, technical ability, managem ...

This preliminary paper discusses the creation of an
agent based model for a signalized traffic intersection derived from a
previously developed mathematical vehicle-following micro-simulation model. The
results of the agent based model are compared to the results from the
mathematical model for verification purposes. The agent based model is then
used to show the effects of inclement weather on vehicle throughput at a
traffic inte ...

Concrete production has resulted inside the
accumulated that has to be compelled to confirm substitute material to
sand as inside the assembly of concretes. Quarry mud, a by-product from the
crushing methodology throughout production activities is one in each of such
materials. Granite fines or rock mud can be a by-product obtained throughout
crushing of granite rocks to boot observed as quarr ...
