RISLoss Prevention: Safeguards Against Liability
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Emerging technologies, uncertain legal doctrines, the trend toward increasing litigation, and the lack of insurance have forced many companies to assess risks more carefully and to reemphasize loss prevention programs. ...
Time Domain State Space Identification of Structural Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An integrated time domain state space identification technique for structural systems is presented. This technique integrates the Observability Range Space Extraction identification algorithm, Balanced ...
Head Loss at Soil‐Drain Envelope Interfaces
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hydraulic gradients at exits from porous media are greater than those predicted by laminar flow theory. Exit gradient effects project into the soil away from the exit interface in the manner of a backwater curve. Head ...

Beyond ADR: Working Toward Synergistic Strategic Partnership
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques are becoming increasingly common to resolve disputes in the construction industry. As an alternative to litigation, ADR can be very effective. However, as the name implies, ...
Frequency Domain Structural System Identification by Observability Range Space Extraction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the Frequency Domain Observability Range Space Extraction (FORSE) identification algorithm. FORSE is a singular value decomposition based identification algorithm which constructs ...
