Discussion of “<i>Cohesive Material Erosion by Unidirectional Current</i>” by J. William Kamphuis and Kevin R. Hall (January, 1983)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “<i>Two‐Dimensional Model of Mud Transport</i>” by Peter Cole and Gordon V. Miles (January, 1983)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
A Theoretical Explanation of the Fetch- and Duration-Limited Laws
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he evolution of wind-induced ocean waves is studied theoretically. The modeling assumes that wave groups evolve independently of each other in a state of local equilibrium between wind-pumping- and wave-breaking-induced ...
Discussion of “<i>Experiments on Saline Wedge</i>” by Frank E. Sargent and Gerhard H. Jirka (October, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 10)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “<i>Shoaling Processes in Navigable Waters</i>” by the Task Committee on Causes and Effects of Shoaling in Navigable Waters (May, 1983)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “<i>Two‐Layer Model of Saline Wedge. I: Entrainment and Interfacial Friction</i>” by Masamitsu Arita and Gerhard H. Jirka (October, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 10)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Coherent Turbulent Structures within Open-Channel Lateral Cavities
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the mixing layer at the interface between an open-channel flow and its adjacent lateral open-channel cavity, vortices are periodically shed and advected towards the downstream corner. As these vortices impinge the ...
Uncertainty Quantification in Support of Severe Accident Analysis Code User Confidence Using MELCOR-DAKOTA
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Uncertainty and Sensitivity analysis methods are often used in severe accident analysis for validating the complex physical models employed in the system codes that simulate such scenarios. This is necessitated by the large ...
Effect of Side Wind on a Simplified Car Model: Experimental and Numerical Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A prior analysis of the effect of steady cross wind on full size cars or models must be conducted when dealing with transient cross wind gust effects on automobiles. The experimental and ...
Elastic Stiffness of Flared Bridge Columns with Foundation Springs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The elastic stiffness of columns is a parameter extensively used for the dynamic and static analysis of bridges. The analytic exact estimation of this parameter is very complicated when the geometry and boundary conditions ...
