RISIntegrated Modeling of Typhoon Damrey’s Effects on Sediment Resuspension and Transport in the North Passage of Changjiang Estuary, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A typhoon is one of the major factors that often cause sediment transport and bed erosion in estuarine navigational channels. A 12.5-m deepwater navigational channel (DNC) is located in the north passage of the Changjiang ...
Development and Assessment of Renewable Energy–Integrated Multigeneration System for Rural Communities in Nigeria: Case Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This research designed a multigeneration system that meets the energy requirement of a rural community in Nigeria. This system is powered by the biogas produced from maize silage and chicken manure. Nigeria is the most ...
Cooperative Control of Highway On-Ramp with Connected and Automated Vehicles as Platoons Based on Improved Variable Time Headway
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work investigated the cooperative control of a highway on-ramp under a connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) environment based on improved variable time headway (IVTH). A mainline section with a connected on-ramp ...
Earth Pressure Estimation of Undrained Soil–Wall Systems with Head Rotation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Semianalytical or analytical models for calculating active and passive earth pressure coefficients for undrained soil–wall systems subjected to head rotation are rare. To fill this gap, this study proposes a semianalytical ...
Temperature Control of a SOFC and MGT Hybrid System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Transients in a load have a significant impact on the performance and durability of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) integrated into a micro gas turbine (MGT) hybrid power system. One of the ...
Downdrift Port Siltation Adjacent to a River Mouth: Mechanisms and Effects of Littoral Sediment Transport to the Navigation Channel
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The mechanisms controlling sediment transport at river mouths and estuaries nearby ports are complicated interactions among waves, tidal currents, and river flows over complex bathymetry. Episodic river discharge triggered ...
Identification of Thermohaline Sheet and Its Spatial Structure in the Canada Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Thirty-four individual thermohaline sheets are identified at depths of 170–400 m in the Canada Basin of the Arctic Ocean by using the hydrographical data measured with the Ice-Tethered Profilers (ITPs) between August 2005 ...
