RISReturn Levels under Nonstationarity: The Need to Update Infrastructure Design Strategies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recent studies propose different metrics for hydrologic design under nonstationarity, such as the effective return level, the expected waiting time (EWT)-based return level, the expected number of events (ENE)-based return ...
Impact of Climate Change on Multihazard Performance of River-Crossing Bridges: Risk, Resilience, and Adaptation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Enhanced flood hazard due to global warming and climate change imposes an additional threat to safety and serviceability of river crossing bridges. This study proposes an integrated approach to assess how climate change ...
Detection of Change in Flood Return Levels under Global Warming
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Using recent advancements in the statistical extreme value theory, this study proposes a methodology for detection of change in flood return levels under climate change. Nonstationary scaling of regional projected peak ...

Multiobjective Groundwater Remediation System Design Using Coupled Finite-Element Model and Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The optimal design of a groundwater remediation system using the pump-and-treat method is a complex task involving modeling physical phenomena such as groundwater flow and contaminant transport and optimizing several goals ...
Comparison of Nonstationary Regional Flood Frequency Analysis Techniques Based on the Index-Flood Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Regional flood frequency analysis (RFFA) techniques are used in hydrological applications for estimation of design quantiles at ungauged sites or catchments with sparse observational records. The index-flood method, a ...
