RISHydrological and Water Quality Assessment in a Suburban Watershed with Mixed Land Uses Using the SWAT Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study applied the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to the Neshanic River watershed, a suburban watershed with mixed land uses in Central New Jersey, United States. The urban lands were prominently in low-density ...
Design for Deconstruction Using Sustainable Composite Beams with Precast Concrete Planks and Clamping Connectors
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents the results of full-scale flexural testing of deconstructable composite beams that are part of a sustainable composite floor system. In this system, steel beams are attached with precast concrete planks ...
Integrated Hydrologic-Economic Modeling of Coalitions of Stakeholders for Water Allocation in the South Saskatchewan River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A real world case study of water and benefit allocation among stakeholders in the South Saskatchewan River Basin in Alberta, Canada, is presented. To be able to carry out this large-scale water basin system investigation, ...
Mathematical Programming Approaches for Modeling Water Rights Allocation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Three methods for modeling allocation of water rights under different types of water rights systems are presented. The priority-based maximal multiperiod network flow (PMMNF) programming method searches for optimal allocations ...
Interface Shear Behavior between MICP-Treated Calcareous Sand and Steel
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Microbial-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is an innovative ground improvement technique that utilizes bacteria to induce calcium carbonate precipitation to cement soil particles. In this paper, the interface strength ...
Numerical Study of MICP Infiltration and Mineralization in Unsaturated Soils: CaCO<sub>3</sub> Distribution and Critical Depth
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rainfall, evaporation, tides and waves make the soil at coastlines show dynamic unsaturated characteristics. In order to cope with landslides, collapses, and coastline receding, microbially induced calcium carbonate ...
Field Tests of the Lateral Monotonic and Cyclic Performance of Jet-Grouting-Reinforced Cast-in-Place Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a field study of the lateral monotonic and cyclic behavior of jet-grouting, reinforced, cast-in-place piles in soft soils. To assess the contribution of the jet-grouting reinforcement, nine instrumented ...
Numerical Model for Pipeline Laying During S-lay
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The S-lay method has been widely used in pipeline installation from shallow water to deep water for decades. In this paper, a novel numerical model for analyzing pipelines in the S-lay problem ...
3D Elastoplastic Model for Fine-Grained Gassy Soil Considering the Gas-Dependent Yield Surface Shape and Stress-Dilatancy
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Fine-grained sediments containing large discrete gas bubbles are widely distributed in the five continents throughout the world. The presence of gas bubbles could either degrade or enhance the hardening behavior and undrained ...
Semianalytical Three-Dimensional Solutions for the Transient Response of Functionally Graded Material Rectangular Plates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A semianalytical method for the transient response of functionally graded material (FGM) rectangular plates under various boundary conditions, by the use of state space method, differential quadrature method, and numerical ...
