<p>The subject of this paper is exposed-geomembrane-lined ponds whose leakage to the environment is highly undesirable. Such ponds are actually quite common in industrialized settings, and they form an important part of the operating infrastructure of many ...

The focus of this paper is on applications (e.g. some leachate collection layers in landfills) where a drainage system consists of a geocomposite overlain by a sand layer. If the geocomposite does not have sufficient flow capacity to convey all the collected ...

This technical note presents an extension of earlier analytical methods published in 1995 by Giroud et al. for evaluating the uplift of geomembranes by wind. The extension incorporates: (i) the influence on wind uplift of the slope inclination of an exposed ...
