Landslide Mitigation Using Granular Shear Keys: Observations from a Review of 38 Case Studies
DownloadFall 2017
Canadian transportation industries have been using granular shear keys to remediate shallow slope instabilities for decades. Engineers have used limit equilibrium (LE) analyses as the standard method for designing these granular shear keys (Wyllie & Mah, 2004). These LE analyses do not account...

This thesis proposes a multiport dc-dc modular multilevel converter, which is the first truly modular solution for a \"dc hub\" that can interconnect multiple MVDC or HVDC systems in future dc grids. The proposed converter, termed MP-DCMMC, consists of modular subconverters that can be added to...

It has been well known that turbulent motions are ubiquitous in the interstellar medium. These motions are very important in governing various astrophysical processes like star formation. Both observational and numerical studies are important to understand turbulent motions, and a gap between...
