Pollutant Mass Flushing Characterization of Highway Stormwater Runoff from an Ultra-Urban Area
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Water quality of highway stormwater runoff from an ultra-urban area was characterized by determining the event mean concentration (EMC) for several pollutants and by evaluating pollutant flushing. Thirty-two storm events ...
A Horizontal Telescoping Grid Model with a Vertically Nested Layer Using Bi-Cubic Splines
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A numerical weather forecasting program using bi-cubic spline fits to the data in the horizontal direction and cubic spline fits in the vertical has been tested using real weather data for a 48 h forecast period. The grid ...
Impact of Environmental Contamination on Construction Projects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to provide the construction contracting community with a better understanding of the impacts of discovering unforeseen environmental contamination on a project site and to provide practical ...
Observational Evidence for Asymmetric Inertial Instability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We present a detailed analysis of a mesoscale circulation phenomenon that appeared on satellite images as a group of propagating cloud wavelets. These wavelets developed on the anticyclonic side of a strong, upper-level ...
The Application of Pressure- and Temperature-Sensitive Paints to an Advanced Compressor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An innovative pressure-measurement technique that employs the tools of molecular spectroscopy has been widely investigated by the aerospace community. Measurements are made via oxygen-sensitive ...
Coincident In Situ and W-Band Radar Measurements of Drop Size Distribution in a Marine Stratus Cloud and Drizzle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Investigation of precipitation formation requires measurements of the drop size distribution in a cloud. These measurements have usually been made using ground-based radar systems or aircraft in situ probes. Difficulties ...
Erratum: “The Mechanical Role of the Radial Fibers Network Within the Annulus Fibrosus of the Lumbar Intervertebral Disc: A Finite Elements Study” [ASME J. Biomech. Eng., 2018, 141(2), p. 021006: DOI: 10.1115/1.4041769]
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Experimental Study of PhiX174 Resuspension from Mobile Bed Sediment
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: PhiX174 (or ΦX174) is a spherical single-stranded DNA bacteriophage used as a surrogate to study viral enteric pathogens in the environment. The resuspension of viral pathogen from bed sediment in irrigation canals impairs ...
The Mechanical Role of the Radial Fiber Network Within the Annulus Fibrosus of the Lumbar Intervertebral Disc: A Finite Elements Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The annulus fibrosus (AF) of the intervertebral disc (IVD) consists of a set of concentric layers composed of a primary circumferential collagen fibers arranged in an alternating oblique orientation. Moreover, there exists ...
Analysis of Ground-Measured and Passive-Microwave-Derived Snow Depth Variations in Midwinter across the Northern Great Plains
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Accurate estimation of snow mass is important for the characterization of the hydrological cycle at different space and time scales. For effective water resources management, accurate estimation of snow storage is needed. ...
