Design Water Amount for Reservoir Management and Operation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Reservoirs for flood protection are normally designed by using the annual maximum design flood (AMDF). However, management and operation of a reservoir require regulation of intrayear runoff instead of interyear runoff. ...
Closure to “Design Water Amount for Reservoir Management and Operation” by Shan Xu Wang and Vijay P. Singh
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Test Model of a Long-Span Arch-Shaped Steel Tower Cable-Stayed Bridge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Zhijiang River Bridge was used as a test model to study the mechanical behavior of long-span arch-shaped steel tower cable-stayed bridge. The test model was designed and simulated with a finite element method, which ...
Time, Cost, and Energy Consumption Analysis on Construction Optimization in High-Rise Buildings
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The multiobjective optimization problems in project management have always been the issues on which project managers focus. Currently, few investigators consider the multiobjective optimization model suitable for high-rise ...
Stability Analysis of Inhomogeneous Slopes in Unsaturated Soils Optimized by a Genetic Algorithm
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Most theoretical analysis for the assessment of the stability of soil slopes is commonly performed under completely dry or saturated and homogeneous conditions, the effect of suction and soil inhomogeneity are generally ...
Improving Prediction Accuracy of Hydrologic Time Series by Least-Squares Support Vector Machine Using Decomposition Reconstruction and Swarm Intelligence
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Accurate hydrologic forecasting plays a significant role in water resource planning and management. To improve the prediction accuracy, this study develops a hybrid hydrological forecasting method based on signal decomposition ...
Discretized Cell Modeling for Optimal Layout of Multiple Tower Cranes
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Multiple tower crane layout planning (MTCLP) refers to the selection of the types, quantities, and positions of tower cranes and material storage positions. In a construction project, choosing tower cranes with a larger ...
