RISSustainable Configuration of Bioretention Systems for Nutrient Management through Life-Cycle Assessment and Cost Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The need for stormwater quality control, especially the control of nutrients, has been recognized due to the widespread problem of water eutrophication. The bioretention system, as a green infrastructure, can remove the ...

Quantifying Hierarchical Indicators of Water Distribution Network Structure and Identifying Their Relationships with Surrogate Indicators of Hydraulic Performance
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Enhancing the performance of water distribution networks (WDNs) on a day-to-day basis or under extreme disturbances is an utmost priority for utilities. Previous research has characterized the structure of WDNs in the ...
Water Distribution–Transportation Interface Connectivity Responding to Urban Geospatial Morphology
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Water distribution and transportation systems are geospatially colocated, forming a network of connections. This network of connections is referred to as an interface network. Investigation of interface network connectivity ...
Integrating Climate Change, Hydrology, and Water Footprint to Measure Water Scarcity in Lesotho, Africa
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This research integrated bias-corrected results from regional climate models, a watershed hydrology model, and water footprint analysis to measure the impact of climate change on future water scarcity in Lesotho, a water-rich ...
Geospatial Vulnerability Framework for Identifying Water Infrastructure Inequalities
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Recent infrastructure failures in the United States have brought attention to the ways and extent to which water security is unevenly distributed in urban areas. For many marginalized communities, infrastructure interdependencies ...
Material Flow Analysis Applied to Household Solid Waste and Marine Litter on a Small Island Developing State
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Small island developing states (SIDS) have limited access to imported goods, and their associated patterns of consumption and waste generation are affected by space limitations. They are also impacted by the global presence ...
Modeling of Adsorption and Regeneration of Volatile Organic Compounds on Activated Carbon Fiber Cloth
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A mathematical model is developed to predict continuous adsorption-regeneration cycling of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on activated carbon fiber cloth (ACFC) at the indoor VOC concentration levels. The adsorption-r ...
Strategies to Improve Performance of Community-Managed Water Systems with System Dynamics Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Community management is a common approach to securing access to clean water for rural residents. Its failure to sustain water services over acceptable lifetimes has been well-documented, adversely impacting human health ...
Extracting Arterial Access Density Impacts on Safety Performance Based on Clustering and Computational Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Access density is defined as the number of accesses per unit length along an arterial. Numerous studies conducted in various regions have indicated that access density has a significant influence on crash occurrences and ...
