For proper construction and operation of the industrial park there was proposed and already realised a 38 groundwater extraction well system from which optimum pumping rate is required to keep the groundwater level at required elevation. To address this challenge numerical groundwater modelling system using TRIWACO simulation package has been applied. The modelling package utilises finite element method (FEM) that can handle complex aquifer parameters for running quasi three-dimensional groundwater flow model. Bas...

In the study we dealt with the design of family-type civil constructions on competent foundation ground from geotechnical point of view. The geotechnical characteristics of the rocks that are necessary for the design of a civil construction were made in the laboratory of the PROIECT GEO SRL Company in Oradea. We analyzed the placement general conditions, the geomorphology and geology of the foundation ground required for the construction. The necessary data for the design of family-type civil-engineering foundatio...

This work presents a mechanical and physical characterization of rock material from different slopes located in the town of Coimbra (Central Portugal) and its adjacent areas. The slopes are designated by numbers from 1 to 7. Slopes 1 and 2 are placed in Lower Jurassic Formations. Slope 1 is composed by marly limestones and marls. Slope 2 is constituted by dolomitic limestone. Lower Cretaceous Sandstones outcrop in Slope 3. Slope 4 is placed in the Finisterra Microplate and Slopes 5, 6 and 7 belong to the ?Schist-G...

The aim of this work is to study the erosion and stability of rock cliffs. The selected sites are located in the Cuio and Kalohanda areas from the southern sector of the Baia-Farta municipality, on the coast of the Province of Benguela, central-western Angola. The fourteen studied sites are situated nearby fishing villages and present two distinct climate seasons: the rainy season and the dry season. The studied area presents a huge potential for economic activity related with tourism. The rock cliffs are mainly c...
