Project-Specific Steel Sheet Piling Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hot-rolled, heavy-gauge steel sheet piling has advantages over other available products including concrete, vinyl, and fiberglass-reinforced polymers for bulkhead and deep-excavation applications. For FEMA seawall bulkheads, ...
Flow over Small Heat Islands: A Numerical Sensitivity Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional nonlinear model with physical parameterizations was applied to simulate the observed diurnal variation on the 5-km-wide flat tropical island of Nauru in the trade wind zone. Both the model and Atmospheric ...
Modification of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer by a Small Island: Observations from Nauru
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Nauru, a small island in the tropical Pacific, generates cloud plumes that may grow to over 100-km lengths. This study uses observations to examine the mesoscale disturbance of the marine atmospheric boundary layer by the ...
