Field blast studies are conducted to determine if soil will liquefy under earthquake loading. A predetermined explosive charge is buried in a cased borehole. Acceleration, pore water pressure, and settlement gauges are placed nearby. When detonated, the blast records acceleration, pore water pressure rise, and ground settlement. This data is interpreted to evaluate liquefaction potential. One such study found that a blast equivalent to 19.6 cycles of 0.075g acceleration generated a 1.74m pore water pressure rise, indicating complete liquefaction would occur during an earthquake.

This document summarizes subsurface investigation methods for groundwater exploration, including test drilling and borehole geophysical logging techniques. Test drilling methods collect samples and logs to characterize subsurface geology and identify aquifers. Geophysical logging lowers sensor tools to measure physical properties like resistivity, natural radiation, and temperature that indicate lithology, porosity, and groundwater flow. These subsurface techniques provide detailed data for groundwater exploration but are more expensive than surface methods.

WCEE2012_1941
This paper presents a comprehensive liquefaction potential assessment for the ground conditions in Hong Kong's North-west New Territories region. One-dimensional site response analyses were carried out to calculate cyclic shear stresses for 27 soil profiles from boreholes. Two input earthquake ground-motion levels corresponding to a 10% and 2% chance of exceedance in the next 50 years were examined. The results show the chance of liquefaction for the 10% motion is very low, but some soils may liquefy under the more extreme 2% motion. Published geological maps and over 3000 boreholes were used to develop liquefaction microzonation maps. A comparison was also made between the findings and liquefaction likelihood defined in China's Seismic Code.

This document presents a mathematical model for estimating deep percolation due to irrigation. Deep percolation is the movement of water below the root zone of plants, which is important for groundwater recharge and drainage design. The model uses parameters like bed slope, inflow rate, and soil infiltration coefficients which were measured on 16 farms. These parameters are inputs to equations that model soil moisture and percolation rates over time. Comparison of estimated versus measured deep percolation showed the model's error was 1.73%. The goal was to develop an accurate but less expensive and time-consuming alternative to traditional field measurement methods for determining deep percolation.
PERMEABILITY OF SOILS
This document defines permeability as the property of soil that allows water to flow through due to interconnected voids. It describes two laboratory methods to measure permeability - constant head and falling head tests. Darcy's law is explained, relating flow rate to permeability and hydraulic gradient. Typical permeability values are given for different soil types from gravel to clay. The constant head test procedure and calculations are outlined, along with data sheets to record measurements.
Writing Sample
This study analyzed water level fluctuations in the Inglefield sandstone aquifer in southwestern Indiana. Hourly water level measurements from deep and shallow piezometers showed fluctuations up to 0.15 m over hours. Most of the fluctuations correlated inversely with barometric pressure changes, indicating barometric influence. The barometric efficiency was calculated to be 0.95, suggesting a rigid aquifer skeleton. After removing the barometric influence, the residual hydrographs still showed small-amplitude periodic fluctuations hypothesized to result from Earth tide stresses. Fourier analysis identified periodicities of 12.01 and 12.4 hours correlating with solar and lunar tides.
pump test for linkedin
The document summarizes a multi-well pump test conducted from July 21-23, 2016 in Akeley, Minnesota to study aquifer characteristics. Pumping well PW-2 drew from the surficial aquifer at 140 gallons per minute, creating a cone of depression over 1000 feet wide. Monitoring wells showed increasing drawdown over time. Pumping from deep well HB-1 also caused drawdown in the confined deep aquifer. Analysis of monitoring well data using the Jacob method found the surficial aquifer has high transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity near PW-2, decreasing with distance. The deep aquifer has high transmissivity but low hydraulic conductivity, storativity, and potential.

BIOREMEDIATION new.ppt
Bioremediation uses microorganisms to degrade contaminants in soil or water. It can be used to treat soils contaminated with organic compounds like petroleum hydrocarbons. The microorganisms break down the contaminants into non-toxic byproducts through oxidation-reduction reactions, transferring electrons to terminal electron acceptors. Factors like pH, temperature, oxygen, nutrients, and toxicity levels must support microbial growth for bioremediation to succeed. It has advantages of being lower cost than mechanical methods and allowing in-situ treatment, but also risks partial degradation and sensitivity to environmental conditions.

Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

- 1. FIELD BLAST STUDIES SANI P G
- 2. Blast Tests Main purpose is to determine whether the soil at the site will liquefy under earthquake loading Predeterminedcharge with electric detonators is installedin a cased bore hole Lead wires from detonators are connected with the blaster Accelerationpickups,pore water pickups and settlement gauges are placedat regular intervals 2
- 3. Acceleration,pore water pressure and ground settlement at the blast point are obtainedby extrapolation The data is then interpreted to obtain the liquefaction potential. Gupta and Mukerjee (1979) performed blast tests in river bed having heterogeneous soil profile The critical hydraulic gradient of top loose sandy deposit of 4m depth is 0.8 Special gelatin was installed at 4m depth in 150mm diameter cased bore holes 3
- 4. Horizontalaccelerations were measured using acceleration pickups The pore water pressure were measured at 2.5m depthfrom the ground surface. 4
- 5. 5
- 6. 6
- 7. 7
- 8. Blast records at different distances are convertedinto equivalent number of cycles of 0.075g acceleration. The blast at a distance of 2.9m are equivalent to 19.6 cycles of 0.075g expectedearthquakes. The pore water pressure developed at distanceof 2.9m and depth 2.5m is 1.74m of water column. At a depth of 2.5m hydraulic head is 2m. Actual pore water pressure developedis larger than the measured value 1.74m complete liquefactionof site is expectedduringearthquake. 8
