Second Log-Wake Law from Pipe Symmetry and its Applications in Symmetric and Antisymmetric Channel Flows
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The velocity distribution of turbulent pipe flow is often described by the Coles log-wake law that is a superposition of the law of the wall due to the wall shear stress and the law of the wake due to the free turbulence ...
Analytical Equations for Use in the Planning of Infiltration Facilities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper applies an analytical probabilistic approach to examine the hydrologic operations of nonvegetated infiltration facilities. Two sets of analytical equations for estimating infiltration facilities’ stormwater ...
Application of General Unit Hydrograph Model for Baseflow Separation from Rainfall and Streamflow Data
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Baseflow separation from rainfall and streamflow data is a fundamental problem in applied hydrology, unsolved despite extensive investigations. For example, a part of baseflow is interflow, which results from rainfall ...
General Unit Hydrograph from Chow’s Linear Theory of Hydrologic Systems and Its Applications
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This research solves Chow’s linear hydrologic systems equations thoroughly to result in a theoretical instantaneous unit hydrograph (UH), which is a superposition of many (M) negative exponential functions. This implies ...
General and Analytic Unit Hydrograph and Its Applications
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Unit hydrograph (UH) is widely used for predictions of flood hydrograph from a known storm. Its concept and theory are simple and straightforward, but its practical applications are cumbersome because it is discrete and ...
Design Hydrographs in Small Watersheds from General Unit Hydrograph Model and NRCS-NOAA Rainfall Distributions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is time to shift our paradigm of small watershed design from a graphic (or tabular) to a theoretical method, because (1) the recent general unit hydrograph (UH) model can convert a design hyetograph to a design ...
Elastoplastic Buckling of Single Angle Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A nonlinear, large deformation, finite element analysis is presented for the elastoplastic buckling of thin-walled members with initial imperfection subjected to pressure loading. A combined method of increment and one ...
Stochastic Analysis of Hydrologic Operation of Green Roofs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Probabilistic Solutions of Stochastic Oscillators Excited by Correlated External and Parametric White Noises
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stationary probability density function (PDF) solution of random oscillators with correlated additive and multiplicative Gaussian excitations is investigated in this paper. The correlation between additive and ...
Exact Procedure for Einstein–Johnson’s Sidewall Correction in Open Channel Flow
