Interaction between Oxygen Transfer Mechanisms in Lake Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Dissolved oxygen (DO) distributions in stratified lakes can be simulated by a one-dimensional (vertical), deterministic, unsteady (time-variant) diffusion equation with surface gas transfer as a boundary condition and ...
Estimating Hourly Water Temperatures in Rivers Using Modified Sine and Sinusoidal Wave Functions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Numerical Simulations of Efficiency of Curb-Opening Inlets
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The geometry of highway pavement and drainage inlets, especially cross slope, longitudinal slope, and local depression and transition length, usually determine the highway surface drainage capacity. In this study, a ...
Developing Rainfall Intensity-Duration-Frequency Curves for Alabama under Future Climate Scenarios Using Artificial Neural Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hydrologic design of water management infrastructures is on the basis of specific design storms derived from historical rainfall events available in the form of intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves. However, it is ...
Iterative Formulas and Estimation Formulas for Computing Normal Depth of Horseshoe Cross-Section Tunnel
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This note presents iterative formulas that can be used to calculate the normal depth for all types of horseshoe cross sections. Based on the principle of gradual optimization fitting, general estimation formulas were ...
What Should Be the 95th Percentile Rainfall Event Depths?
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Based on Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) published a report providing technical guidance that recommends using the 95th percentile rainfall ...
Closure to “Iterative Formulas and Estimation Formulas for Computing Normal Depth of Horseshoe Cross-Section Tunnel” by Jiliang Liu, Zhengzhong Wang, and Xing Fang
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Influence of Cement on Rheology and Stability of Rosin Emulsified Anionic Bitumen Emulsion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ordinary portland cement (OPC) has been extensively used in cold recycling asphalt and cold-mix asphalt as an additive in order to improve the early age performances of these mixtures. The main purpose of its application ...
Influences of Weather Conditions and Daily Repeated Upstream Releases on Temperature Distributions in a River-Reservoir System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A calibrated three-dimensional environmental fluid dynamics code model was applied to simulate temperature distributions under various hypothetical weather conditions and daily repeated large releases (DRLRs) from the ...
Long-Range Hydrologic Forecasting in El Niño Southern Oscillation-Affected Coastal Watersheds: Comparison of Climate Model and Weather Generator Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Streamflow forecasting is essential for the proper management of water resources, especially when severe droughts cause water resource scarcity. Streamflow forecasting using physically based or conceptual hydrologic models ...
