Democracy And Tort Law In America: The Counter Revolution, Christopher J. Roederer

School of Law Faculty Publications

Although the seeds of democracy and democratic tort reform were sown well before America’s founding, neither began to blossom until after the Second World War. Democratic progress from the 1950s to the 1970s led to, and was in part consolidated by, progressive developments in tort law during the same period. Unfortunately, the last quarter century has been a period of democratic decay in America and just as the revolution in tort law was bound up with democratic progress, the counter-revolution in tort law has tracked and reinforced the waning of American democracy since the 1980s. Although a few authors have …

Design Of A Rainwater Collection System For Irrigation Purposes, Philip Gates, Libby Gravatt, Tyler Mellos, Alex Miller, Dario Turjanski

Engineering Senior Design Reports

A rainwater collection system implemented in a small community garden in San Antonio proposes to operate as efficiently as possible. The original design problem and proposed solution are discussed, and the construction process and the final design are evaluated. A set of experiments was conducted to help determine specific building parameters that would be included in the final design. Once built, the system successfully completed the major goal, to distribute water through a garden plot, by employing each of the other system components.

Planning And Adaptation Measures For Urban Slum Communities In West Africa : Stochastic Rainfall Modeling Applied To Domestic Rainwater Harvesting And Climate Change Adaptation, Joshua R. Cowden

Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports - Open

Over half of the world’s population is living in urban settlements, and most urban growth is occurring in developing countries. These countries’ economies are often unable to accommodate these rural-urban immigrations, resulting in millions of people settling in insecure communities known as urban slums. Current efforts to prevent urban slums include UN-HABITAT strategies to upgrade slums and stimulate urban/regional development. Urban metabolism analysis, which studies material and energy flows/stocks through urban processes, help decision-makers better understand their urban system. Nine lessons from past urban metabolism studies are presented to assist in finding answers on how to best solve urban slum …

Four specific activities were considered: working, volunteering, exercising, and taking classes.
