Leakage from High-Pressure Natural-Gas Transmission Lines

From Scope of Report: "With the cooperation of the Natural Gas Association of America, therefore, the Bureau of Mines has made a scientific study of leakage losses. The fundamental purpose of a study has been to gather information that will aid operating companies in their leakage problems and as a result to conserve natural gas for domestic and industrial consumption instead of allowing it dissipated into the air."

A New Wireless Sensor Node Design for Program Isolation and Power Flexibility

Over-the-air programming systems for wireless sensor networks have drawbacks that stem from fundamental limitations in the hardware used in current sensor nodes. Also, advances in technology make it feasible to use capacitors as the sole energy storage mechanism for sensor nodes using energy harvesting, but most current designs require additional electronics. These two considerations led to the design of a new sensor node. A microcontroller was chosen that meets the Popek and Goldberg virtualiz… more

Experimental Study of Artificial Recharge Alternatives in Northwest Hillsborough County, Florida

Abstract: Extensive water withdrawal from Floridian aquifer in the urban Tampa Bay area has induced leakage from the overlying surficial aquifer adversely effecting the water table and lake levels. Artificial recharge could reduce the impact of these adverse effects. Four experiments were conducted to investigate possible recharge alternatives; sinkhole recharge, water-spreading, connector wells, and subsurface-tile drainage to a deep well. Experiments indicate that all four methods can be effe… more
