13. Avaliação de proposições matemáticas para interpretação do comportamento de solos residuais não saturados / Evaluation of equations for modeling the behavior of residual soil unsaturated
Nas últimas décadas, teorias têm sido formuladas para interpretar o comportamento de solos não saturados e estas têm se mostrado coerentes com resultados experimentais. Paralelamente, várias técnicas de campo e de laboratório têm sido desenvolvidas. No entanto, a determinação experimental dos parâmetros dos solos não saturados é cara, morosa, e

14. Análise do comportamento mecânico de um solo expansivo da província petrolífera de Urucu-AM para fins de pavimentação / Analysis of mechanical behavior of an expansive soil from the oil province of Urucu-AM for paving
O estabelecimento de uma infra-estrutura de transporte é fundamental para o desenvolvimento da região denominada de província petrolífera de Urucu-AM. A construção desta infraestrutura esbarra em varias dificuldades entre elas a escassez de materiais adequados para a construção de bases e sub-bases de pavimentos e as condições climáticas adversas,

15. Analysis of mechanical behavior of an expansive soil from the oil province of Urucu-AM for paving / Análise do comportamento mecânico de um solo expansivo da província petrolífera de Urucu-AM para fins de pavimentação
The establishment of transportation infrastructure is critical to the development of the Urucu- AM region, a newly developed oil exploration area in the Amazonas state. The construction of such infrastructure is challenging due to the lack of suitable materials for the construction pavement base and subbase courses and adverse weather conditions, with altern

16. Fuzzy logic applied to the modeling of the transfer of water in soils / LÃgica fuzzy aplicada à modelagem da transferÃncia de Ãgua em solos
Modeling water movement in the unsaturated soil requires a great number of parameters and variables such as the initial soil-water content, the saturated soil-water content, and the saturated hydraulic conductivity, which can relatively easily be assessed. Other functions such as hydraulic conductivity and matric potential which are nonlinear functions of th

17. Metologia para determinação de parâmetros para solos não saturados utilizando ensaios com umidade conhecida
In general the determination of constitutive parameters for unsaturated soils requires tests with controlled suction or allows measurement of suction. In this case it is highlighted the technique of axis translation, steam transfer or osmotic techniques. But generally most laboratories of soil mechanics do not have these tests and even when they are availabl

18. Experimental and numeric analysis of infiltration trenches in unsaturated zone / Análise experimental e numérica de trincheiras de infiltração em meio não saturado
This work assessed the hydraulic behavior of a experimental infiltration trench built at the EESC/USP and proposed a new sizing methodology for infiltration trench, for simulated events. In order to evaluate the hydraulic behavior experimental tests were taken to determine the infiltrated volume. The infiltrated volume was calculated through the difference b

19. Geotechnical site characterization and study of an erosion process caused by urban setting / Investigação geotécnica e estudo de um processo erosivo causado por ocupação urbana
This dissertation presents geotechnical site characterization results of an erosion process area, in Bauru city, inland of São Paulo State, Brazil. The objective is to characterize the local soil and define the major causing factors for the erosion process evolution, which initiated with deforestation, soil sealing and discharge of pluvial and sewer water.

20. EVAPOTRANSPIRAÇÃO DA MELANCIA IRRIGADA POR MEIO DO SEBAL, BALANÇO HÍDRICO E CORRELAÇÕES TURBULENTAS / ESTIMATING IRRIGATED WATERMELON EVAPOTRANSPIRATION USING SEBAL, SOIL-WATER BALANCE AND EDDY CORRELATIONS
In applications of the SEBAL (Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land) algorithm parameters for physical processes adjusted for other regions of the planet are commonly used. Therefore, there is a need for validation of the estimates made with the algorithm compared with other conventional methods of estimating evapotranspiration. Thus, this study main goa

21. Influence of the distance of installation of tensiometers to calculate total potential gradient in the field soil hydraulic conductivity determination / Influência da distância de instalação de tensiômetros no campo para o cálculo do gradiente de potencial total no método do perfil instantâneo
The soil hydraulic conductivity determination method most used under unsaturated field conditions is the instantaneous profile method. This method is based on the integration of Richards equation in relation to soil depth, during the soil water redistribution process, after the profile has been saturated till the interest depth and the soil surface prevented

22. NUMERICAL MODELLING OF INFILTRATION OF HYDROCARBONS IN UNSATURATED SOILS USING THE FINITE VOLUME METHOD / MODELAGEM NUMÉRICA DA INFILTRAÇÃO DE HIDROCARBONETOS EM SOLOS NÃO SATURADOS UTILIZANDO O MÉTODO DE VOLUMES FINITOS
A large proportion of the population depends on groundwater for consumption. Thus, leakage of gasoline tanks represents a significant risk to public health besides the risk of fire and explosion in the sewer lines, due to the flammable gases. These tanks are generally located in the unsaturad soil above the groundwater level. It is therefore important to eva

23. Water and energy fluxes in cowpea and castor beans cultivated in northeast Brazil / Fluxos de Ãgua e de energia em feijÃo macassar e mamona no nordeste do Brasil
The castor beans and cowpea are crops of enormous economic and social importance for the farmers in northeast Brazil, whereas the extracted oil of seeds of castor beans is used for production of biodiesel and the cowpea is the main food for poor population. Independent of crop type, the knowledge of water amount removed from soil by vegetation is of great in

24. Estudo do efeito combinado da estrutura e da sucção sobre o comportamento mecânico de solos não saturados / Study of the combined effect of the structure and suction on the mechanical behavior of unsaturated soils
O presente trabalho refere-se ao estudo do efeito combinado da estrutura e da sucção sobre o comportamento mecânico de dois solos no estado não saturados, um predominantemente argiloso e outro arenoso. As amostras ensaiadas foram reconstituídas com os teores de cimento variando de 0 a 4 %. Foram realizados os ensaios de caracterização físico-química
