RISCase Study of a Marine Filter Curtain System for Coliform Reduction at a Public Beach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A floating marine filter curtain system (boom) was placed around a tidal beach on Long Island Sound to reduce coliform levels following storm events. Coliform data were collected inside and outside the boom over a three-year ...
Discussion of “Oxygen Sag Models for Multiorder Biochemical Oxygen Demand Reactions” by Donald Dean Adrian, Emerald M. Roider, and Thomas G. Sanders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Omission of Critical Reynolds Number for Open Channel Flows in Many Textbooks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: During the analysis of an open channel flow experiment, students were asked to determine whether the flow was laminar or turbulent. The array of answers highlighted the different information carried in fluid mechanics ...

Sheet Thickness Optimization for Superplastic Forming of Engineering Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper explores two optimization strategies; the gradient search and proportional control methods, for determining the initial sheet thickness of superplastic forming to ensure final desired ...
Case Study: Three-Dimensional Hydrodynamic Model of a Power Plant Thermal Discharge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A three-dimensional hydrodynamic model, MIKE 3, was used to assess the effects of the cooling water thermal plume from the
Pressure Waves as a Noninvasive Tool for Artery Stiffness Estimation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In hypertension and aging, central elastic arteries become stiffer and hence the central pulse pressure is augmented due to the increase in the pulse wave velocity and the early return of ...
