Abstract: This paper proposes a number of theoretical probability distributions for variables of interest when planning operations at sea. Examples of such variables are: duration of storms, duration of ...

Abstract: In order to represent the behavior of asphalt concrete mixtures during fatigue tests, a phenomenological model based on the continuous damage theory has been developed. From this model, a method for estimation of fatigue ...

Abstract: Fatigue laws obtained by means of laboratory tests do not usually take into account the fact that asphalt mixtures in highways have rest periods (without loads). These rest periods tend to increase the fatigue life of ...

Abstract: This paper describes a mathematical model for the hydraulic characterization of a field-scale solid set sprinkler irrigation system with a double-line lateral layout configuration. Formulation of the basic hydraulic equations ...
