In this work, a novel fuzzy FEM (Finite Elements Method) numerical solution describing the recession flow in unconfined aquifers is proposed. In general, recession flow and drainage problems can be described by the nonlinear Boussinesq equation, while th...

Cement with fly ash has rarely been used in Japan, mainly because its strength development is slower than ordinary Portland cement. In this research, the effect of the new type of fly ash (which was modified by the electrostatic belt separation method) w...
