Seismic characteristics and strain of coal during the sorption of CO2 and CH4
(2013)
Coal has been studied for its extensive capability of adsorbing CO2 in exchange for
coalbed CH4. Various sorption models have been developed and enhanced in order to
precisely understand the implications of carbon ...
Geostatistical analysis of land use/land cover changes and population growth trends in the Komadugu-Yobe River Basin in Nigeria
(University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012-06-14)
The Komadugu-Yobe River located in northeastern Nigeria is an important tributary of Lake Chad. Since the 1970s, the Komadugu-Yobe basin has experienced significant changes in population density and land use/land cover. ...
Geostatistical integration of core and well log data for high-resolution reservoir modeling
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-01)
Analyzing data derived from well logging and core plugs to understand the heterogeneity of porosity in geologic formations is paramount in petrological studies. The well-log data and core-plug data are integrated in order ...
Detection of diesel leakage from underground storage tank using time domain reflectometry
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-22)
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established regulations concerning
the construction and maintenance of an underground storage tank (UST) system. These
regulations also define the means and methods required ...
Impacts of Precipitation, Land use Land cover and Soil type on the Water Balance of Lake Chad Basin
(2013)
Lake Chad Basin (LCB) has experienced drastic changes in land cover and poor water management practices during the last 50 years. The successive droughts in the 1970s and 1980s resulted in a decrease in surface water and ...
Data-Driven Modeling of the Lake Chad Basin Hydrologic Systems
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)
The drying of the Lake, located in Central Africa, is one example of a water crisis,
which requires more research and studies. The lake has been progressively shrinking since the
1960s due to climate change and anthropogenic ...
First Principles Method for Complex Cement Structure and High Entropy Alloys
(2021)
The ultimate objective of this dissertation contains two different areas of materials – secondary of Portland cement structure and high entropy alloys (HEAs). Similar concept of the computational method was applied to ...
A Semiotic Approach to Russian Military Map Symbology and Terms
(2021)
Modern Russian military maps may comprise any combination of over 1,000 map symbols and 3,000 Russian terms. These symbols and terms identify tangible aspects such as locations, unit/equipment type, numbers, etc., but ...
The Impact of Climate Variability and Land Cover Change on Groundwater Resources in The Niger River Basin
(2021)
The Niger River Basin (NRB) has experienced severe droughts and floods under a significant change of the land use and land cover (LULC) with increasing population over the years. The present study is to understand the ...
VELAS: a fully-distributed daily hydrologic feedback model with emphasis on vegetation, land cover, and soil water dynamics
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-15)
We present a daily hydrologic feedback model, VELAS (the VEgetation-
LAnd cover-Soil water dynamics), to simulate daily responses of hydrologic
processes including interception, runoff, evapotranspiration, infiltration, ...
