Research Abstract |
In this stud, using landfill covers with different physical properties such as compaction levels or moisture conditions, laboratory experiments for understanding gas transport characteristics were conducted. By combining the obtained results from the laboratory experiments with literature data for mass and heat transport parameters for variably-textured soils, unified predictive models for mass and heat transport parameters were proposed, which enable to simulate gas, solute, heat transport in landfill covers with different physical properties.
