Description: The subject of nuclear power is fraught with controversy, and it is often discussed with an inadequate understanding of the science behind today's reactor technology. This book covers the entire nuclear fuel cycle, from mining uranium ore to disposal of radioactive wastes. It is intended for a broad audience of nonspecialist readers. Basic principles are fully explained, and topics such as environmental radioactivity--both naturally occurring and man-made--and safety issues are explored. Anyone interested in the operation of today's nuclear power-generating plants will want to have a copy of this informative volume.

Description: Prediction of a random field based on observations of the random field at some set of locations arises in mining, hydrology, atmospheric sciences, and geography. Kriging, a prediction scheme defined as any prediction scheme that minimizes mean squared prediction error among some class of predictors under a particular model for the field, is commonly used in all these areas of prediction. This book summarizes past work and describes new approaches to thinking about kriging.

Description: FRACTURED AQUIFERS presents all current theories about flow to discharge wells in fractured water bearing formations. The basis of the book is the methods developed by the oil industry since the 1960s, and the oil reservoir notation is replaced by aquifer notation. Thus, the book bridges the gap between the oil and water industries and makes it easy for ground water professionals to use. It addresses universities, private companies and agencies working with evaluation of hydraulic properties of fractured aquifers.
Prepared as a textbook and a reference book, FRACTURED AQUIFERS presents solutions and methods of interpretation for all types of fracture flow, including vertical and horizontal fractures and dual-porosity fracture systems. The book includes numerous worked through examples of drawdown data analysis in limestone, sandstone and crystalline rock formations. Correct analysis of data requires a diagnostic phase using mathematical tools that the book describes in detail.
The book includes a problem section for use in classrooms or for self-study. Some previously unpublished solutions are presented, including analytical methods for analyzing well field history allowing for variable discharge rates.
The data presented gives benefit to the book, since such data is usually difficult to find.

Description: Pipeline Design for Installation by Horizontal Directional Drilling addresses the design of major pipeline or duct segments to be installed by horizontal directional drilling (HDD). This Manual of Practice, which covers topics specifically related to HDD installation, was prepared by a committee of senior engineers who are leaders in the development of HDD techniques and practices. HDD is a trenchless excavation method that is accomplished in three phases and uses a specialized horizontal drilling rig with ancillary tools and equipment. This Manual is meant to be a guide for design engineers with previous experience and knowledge of the HDD installation process and pipeline design methods. Topics Include:• Predesign Surveys • Drilled Path Design • Pipe Design • Construction Impact • As-Built Documentation
