Abstract: The resistance to flow of a channel is increased significantly by the presence of bends or curves. Existing methods for predicting stage‐discharge relationships for meandering channels give conflicting results and none ...

Abstract: Vegetation is an important agent in fluvial geomorphology and sedimentary processes, through its influence on the local hydraulics that determine sediment transport. Within stands of emergent vegetation, bed shear is ...

Abstract: Satellite data from the microwave sounding unit (MSU) channel 4, when carefully merged, provide daily zonal anomalies of lower-stratosphere temperature with a level of precision between 0.01° and 0.08°C per 2.5° latitude ...

Abstract: Sediment grains transported as supply-limited bed load on a rigid surface move either discretely or collectively as bed forms, with significantly different effective grain speeds and active storage volumes. The adopted ...

Abstract: The results of 40 buckling tests on unstiffened welded steel cylindrical shells subjected to combined axial compression and external lateral pressure are compared in the paper with the predictions ...

Abstract: This paper uses information collected over several years to determine where the Cantabro test usefully characterizes dense graded asphalt (DGA). The Cantabro mass loss (CML) procedure is simple, expedient, and has been ...

Abstract: Design coordination of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems in buildings is a multidisciplinary effort to locate equipment, route distribution systems, and resolve interferences between systems that can cause ...

Abstract: In the numerical simulation of turbulent reacting flows, the high computational cost of integrating the reaction equations precludes the inclusion of detailed chemistry schemes, therefore reduced ...

Abstract: We applied a statistical mechanics based microstructural model of pulmonary artery mechanics, developed from our previous studies of rats with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), to patient-specific ...
