Compared with the water entry, the water exit is tightly related to the viscous effect, and the vortex separation within the boundary layer has a significant effect on the hydrodynamic performance of the structure when viscous flow separation occurs. In this paper, we aim to introduce an ...
Mobility is the central mechanism triggering a chain of effects on the availability of local water and pastoral resources. Fewer livestock and people permanently living in an area reduce water demand and pressure on rangeland resources, hence alleviating water and forage shortages for the local communi...
In the present paper, finite-volume method in conjunction with volume of fluid scheme is used to numerically simulate the free surface profile related to the water entry of a general bow section. Furthermore, the pressure distributions related to the free surface profiles obtained are computed for...
Actionable elements for effective implementation of IWRM derived from this definition include cooperation, identification of problems and solutions, and agreement on common objectives among water-related stakeholders (Mitchell and Hollick 1993; UN Environment 2018; Pahl-Wostl et al. 2020). However, Latin...
As in regular literature reviews, this study approved entry and exit criteria and used scope. Therefore, the Boolean expression has been used in this study (water, energy, land use, and environment) and (Nexus OR green) and (sustainable * or green building). The Boolean term for mapping ...
The selection of probability classes is done by the decision maker; the criteria are not only depending on the type of problem but also on the range of possibilities acceptable to the decision maker, thus related to her perception of risk. Probability and probability classes a...
The water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi, has recently made national and international headlines as a major environmental catastrophe, impacting the public health and wellbeing of residents. Here we focus on Jackson’s most prevalent and vulnerable population, its children, by assessing how boil water...
If entry and exit are costless, markets are contestable. This is the case when no costs are sunk for firms leaving the market, and no investment into specific capital is necessary for entering the market.Footnote 22 This is not always the case in unconnected water markets served by vendors....
Metering inaccuracies, the largest proportion of apparent losses, can be minimized by maintaining the meters (inspection, recalibration and replacement) and by managing the billing procedures to minimize errors in data entry and billing. Managing unauthorized consumption is complicated because of the ...
If humanity recognizes this situation and takes measures to improve the environment, it may transition from the unfavourable zone to the cautious zone, leading to an improvement in ecological security and potential entry into the safe zone. For ease of analysis and based on the relevant literature...
