Longitudinal Dispersion Coefficients in Estuary
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field measurements of velocity and salinity on a transverse cross section of a straight reach in the upper Conwy estuary have been used to evaluate the temporal and intratidal variations of the transverse and vertical shear ...
Turbulence Measurements of Suspended Solids Concentration in Estuaries
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Measurements of turbulent fluctuations of horizontal and vertical components of velocity and of suspended solids concentration in the region of 0.50 to 1.25 m above the bed have been made in the upper reaches of the Conwy ...
Temporal and Spatial Variations in Bulk Chlorine Decay within a Water Supply System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Modern water treatment must maintain an acceptable balance between the microbial safety of potable water supply, the costs of treatment, and the formation of potentially harmful disinfection by-products (DBPs). In order ...
Turbulence Measurements in the Great Ouse Estuary
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field measurements have been made of the turbulent fluctuations of the longitudinal and vertical components of velocity by using an electromagnetic flowmeter in a partially mixed reach of the Great Ouse estuary. An error ...
Laterally Restrained Bamboo Concrete Composite Arch under Uniformly Distributed Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The arch, as a structural element, has been used since ancient times, originally in stone or timber, more recently in reinforced concrete or steel. However, the more modern materials involving steel and concrete are highly ...
Performance of Various Kinetic Models for Chlorine Decay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A number of computer packages have been developed for modeling chlorine decay in water distribution networks. However, there is uncertainty as to the kinetic model that they should use for the decay mechanism. This paper ...
Effect of Wave Height on Cross-Shore Solute Mixing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The investigations reported relate to a series of hydrodynamic and fluorometric tracing experiments carried out in the U.K. Coastal Research Facility, located at H. R. Wallingford Ltd. Detailed measurements were made to ...
Solute Mixing in the Surf Zone
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental study has been undertaken within the U.K. Coastal Research Facility (CRF), located at HR Wallingford Ltd. Detailed measurements were made to examine the on–off shore spreading of a solute, mostly inside the ...
Bulk Decay of Chlorine in Water Distribution Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Mathematical models of chlorine concentration in water distribution systems require the bulk decay coefficient to be quantified. The coefficient needs to be determined with respect to independent variables if models are ...
