RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

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
