Typical Projects:
- Evaluation of ultrasonics for assessing internal flaws in geomembrane seams;
- Development of infrared thermography for the nondestructive evaluation of geomembranes and seams - including seam bond strength
- Crack growth rates in HDPE geomembranes and the influence of temperature
- Influence of seaming on crack growth rates in HDPE geomembranes
- Elevated temperature accelerated aging of high tenacity PET geosynthetics
- A high compressive strength, high shear strength, geomembrane/GCL composite (U.S. Patent #5,788,413)
- Optimum surface profiles for textured/structured geomembranes
- Surface temperatures of white, smooth, and textured HDPE geomembranes
