New Technique for Flood Risk Assessment of Sub-Networks in Large Networks Using InfoWorks ICM: A Case Study of Qatar's Full Storm Water Network
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
The elements of the storm water network are made to safely drain most water during a heavy rainstorm. Flood risk modelling (mathematical modelling) with hydraulic software is a good way to check the network's level of ...
Efficient Turbidity Removal Using a New Gel Filtration Process
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
The removal of turbidity is a prime objective in the treatment of seawater, especially in the production of potable water. The water turbidity exists because of the colloidal particles or large-weight molecules that remain ...
