This paper is concentrated on the pretreatment of the model validation. We use the validation scenarios and standard sequences generated by well-established SDG model to validate the trends fitted from the simulation model. The results are helpful to find potential problems, assess possible bugs in the simulation model and solve the problem effectively. A case study on a simulation model of boiler is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this method.展开更多

By analyzing the characteristics and formation of engineering geological environment,the major problems are discussed, including stability of basement rock, sandy soil liquefaction and cultural stratum.According to effecting factors of these problems, the stability of every engineering geological problem in the worked area is classified into different classes. Then, the Fussy Clustering method is used in assessing all conditions of engineering geological environment. Finally, the evaluation is fulfilled in the whole studied area. The calculating result shows the method is feasible.展开更多

As such, they are most vulnerable to effects of climate changes which are floods, drought, deforestation, environmental degradation and so on. Many of affected communities particularly in rural areas and urban poor have resorted to migration to viable agricultural lands and urban areas increasing pressure on available social services. This situation has led to depletion of natural resources in the fringes of the cities in search for shelter, food, water, energy etc.. Dares Salaam city is highly prone to environmental degradation by being highly populated and closer to the Kazimzumbwi Forest National Reserve, which has been a resource of logging at the guise of sustainable livelihood of Dares Salaam city residents. This paper is reporting on a study undertaken in ENVI ＆ ARCGIS software environment to evaluate the extent of environmental degradation in the forest reserve for the period of 16 years i.e. 1995-201 l, firstly, for purpose of informing policy makers and administrators to determine the extent of the problem and secondly to provide evidence for development of effective mitigation measures. Results revealed a considerable environmental degradation within the forest reserve over the study period. This was attested by a decrease of forests by 42%, grass land, as well as increase of bare land and grass land by 26% and 42% respectively. This is a testimony that there was a significant environmental degradation and loss of natural resources during the study period which should be addressed by relevant authorities.展开更多

The study of concentrations elements was a target organ for aquatic environmental. Comparison between the mean concentrations of the elements in the water concentration levels of all studied elements was the highest with the mollusks. The results show that the station 5 is where the highest concentrations are found in water and in the two species. There is a significant correlation （P = 0.224） for concentrations of vanadium and P = 0.735 for zinc in two species of mollusks relative to their concentrations in surface water. All significant differences were accepted at a level of P 〈 0.05. The potential uptake of elements including V and Zn, as Viviparous bengalensi 〉 Unio tigridis, The mechanism for elements uptake determined by water for organisms confined to the contaminated areas seemed to be largely independent of species, mollusks demonstrated a significant positive relationship with water. These results have important implications for the utility of marshes biota as subjects for elements monitoring program.展开更多
