Closure to “<i>Formation and Effects of Alternate Bars</i>” by Martin N. R. Jaeggi (February, 1984, Vol. 110, No. 2)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Non‐Conventional Solution for River Mouth Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Conditions at the mouth of the Reuss River into the Lake of Lucerne (Switzerland) were considerably altered first by intensive river training works and then by dredging. The resultant shore erosion can be halted, and the ...
Formation and Effects of Alternate Bars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Major river regulation works have often resulted in alternate bar formation. Experimental work is described which provides more information on this phenomenon. Alternate bar formation is closely associated with meandering, ...
Ft. Drum Estimating and Bidding from Contractor's Point of View
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Ft. Drum Project was a high‐risk, large (over $500,000,000) project which the U.S. Corps of Engineers bid on a request‐for‐proposal (RFP) basis rather than the more conventional closed, competitive bid basis. This paper ...
Second Roebling Lecture 1991
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Upon receiving the Second Roebling Award, the writer presents the Second Roebling Lecture 1991. The award recognizes individuals who have contributed toward the advancement of construction engineering. After recalling some ...
Compressor Leading Edge Spikes: A New Performance Criterion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compressor blades often have a small “spike” in the surface pressure distribution at the leading edge. This may result from blade erosion, manufacture defects, or compromises made in the original ...
The Impact of Real Geometries on Three-Dimensional Separations in Compressors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper considers the effect of small variations in leading edge geometry, leading edge roughness, leading edge fillet, and blade fillet geometry on the three-dimensional separations found in ...
Grain Sorting Processes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Grain sorting affects river bed aggradation through downstream fining and erosion processes through static and mobile armor formation. A fractionwise sediment transport calculation procedure is presented. It has been ...
On the Hierarchy of Models for Pipe Transients: From Quasi-Two-Dimensional Water Hammer Models to Full Three-Dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics Models
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A hierarchy of models exists in the literature for the simulation of pipe transients. One-dimensional (1D) water hammer models provide a cost-effective tool for the analysis of such transients. Traditional 1D models implement ...
The Impact of Geometric Variation on Compressor Two Dimensional Incidence Range
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An important question for a designer is how, in the design process, to deal with the small geometric variations which result from either the manufacture process or inservice deterioration. For some blade designs geometric ...
