- Overview of scientific investigations at Yucca Mountain—the potential . . .
The US Department of Energy (DOE) is investigating the feasibility of using the unsaturated zone (UZ) at Yucca Mountain, NV, as a permanent storage facility for the disposal of high-level nuclear waste This potential site is located about 120 km northwest of Las Vegas in a semi-arid region (Fig 1) Some favorable attributes of the site are low rates of infiltration (average about 5 mm yr), a
- Prediction of concentration of toxic gases produced by detonation of . . .
In this paper, we discuss the possibility of theoretical prediction of the concentration of toxic gases by thermochemical equilibrium calculation applying two models: ideal detonation model and deflagration model It can be demonstrated that thermochemical calculations can provide a good estimation of the measured concentrations and reproduce experimentally obtained effects of additives on the
- What can we learn from the Hoover Dam project that . . . - ScienceDirect
The Hoover Dam was completed two years ahead of schedule and under budget despite political, economical, technical, and organizational obstacles Previous literature regarding the Hoover Dam project focused primarily on the aspects of design, engineering, and construction, with minimal analysis or discussions on project and program management techniques unique to this undertaking This paper

- Evidence-based design heuristics for idea generation
How do product designers create multiple concepts to consider? To address this question, we combine evidence from four empirical studies of design process and outcomes, including award-winning products, multiple concepts for a project by an experienced industrial designer, and concept sets from 48 industrial and engineering designers for a single design problem This compilation of over 3450
