RISOptimal Pumping Scheduling for Complex Irrigation Water Distribution Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The establishment of an optimal pumping schedule is a cost-free, efficient measure that is easily adopted to reduce energy costs. This paper proposes an optimal pumping scheduling model for complex irrigation water ...
Remediation of Contaminated Soils with PCBs Using an Integrated Treatment: Desorption and Oxidation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: During most of the past century, large quantities of substances were produced and utilized that subsequently proved harmful. This is the case with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) which only became prohibited by law in the ...
Disinfection of Natural Water by Solar Photocatalysis Using Immobilized TiO2 Devices: Efficiency in Eliminating Indicator Bacteria and Operating Life of the System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Natural water has been disinfected using TiO2 as the fixed catalyst incorporated in a homemade photoreactor, in which the dimensions and the design parameters are representative of devices that ...

Flow Induced Vibration in Subsea Jumper Subject to Downstream Slug and Ocean Current
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a multiphysics approach for characterizing flowinduced vibrations (FIVs) in a subsea jumper subject to internal production flow, downstream slug, and ocean current. In the present study, the physical ...
Discussion of “Optimal Design of Pressured Irrigation Subunit” by Ravindra V. Kale, Rajesh P. Singh, and Pooran S. Mahar

Generalization of ETo ANN Models through Data Supplanting
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes the application of artificial neural networks (ANNs) for estimating reference evapotranspiration
Improvement of FAO-56 Model to Estimate Transpiration Fluxes of Drought Tolerant Crops under Soil Water Deficit: Application for Olive Groves
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Agro-hydrological models are considered an economic and simple tool for quantifying crop water requirements. In the last two decades, agro-hydrological physically based models have been developed to simulate mass and energy ...
Similarities between L’Enfant’s Urban Plan for Washington, DC, and the Royal Site of Aranjuez, Spain
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The influence of Versailles on L’Enfant’s 1791 plan for the city of Washington, DC, is well known. Less well known are the surprising similarities between Washington and the forma urbis of the Royal Site of Aranjuez in ...
