RISSolitary Wave Runup on Plane Slopes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study deals with the runup of solitary waves on a uniform plane beach connected to an open ocean of constant depth. The waves are nonbreaking during the runup process. A nonlinear solution to the classical shallow ...
Energy Balance Model for Breaking Solitary Wave Runup
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The runup of breaking solitary waves on a plane beach has been investigated. Experimental measurements demonstrate the effect of the impact of the jet from a plunging breaking solitary wave and the postbreaking bore formed ...
Computer-Aided Procedure for Analysis of Effect of Gradation and Compaction Temperature in Asphalt Mix Design by Using DEM
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The procedure for asphalt mixture design includes determining grading, asphalt content, other volume properties, mechanical performance assessment, and moisture damage potential. This paper proposes a computational method ...
Stochastic Model for Embayed Beaches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Equilibrium models for beach morphology can be a useful engineering tool. In practice, conditions are rarely such that true equilibrium is reached or maintained. Nevertheless, equilibrium models have been used successfully ...
Closure to “Drainage-Process Analyses for Agricultural Non-Point-Source Pollution from Irrigated Paddy Systems” by Kang Wang, Renduo Zhang, and Hui Chen

Modeling the Impact of Design Rework on Transportation Infrastructure Construction Project Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rework in construction development projects can significantly degrade project cost and schedule performance. Previous research has shown that in a typical construction development project, rework in the construction phase ...
Shape-Dependent Transport of Microparticles in Blood Flow: From Margination to Adhesion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: We explore the shape effect of microparticles (MPs) on their margination behaviors in blood flow through three-dimensional numerical simulations. Six different shapes of MPs were considered with identical volume, such as ...
Structural Dynamics and a Virtual Prototype Simulator of the HAB System for Oil Sands Production
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Crude oil and gas are strategic commodities for U.S. national energy security. The demand for fossil fuel energy will continue to grow amid dwindling global supply. Other energy sources, such as oil sands and heavy oil ...
Effects of Digital Technology Adoption on Sustainability Performance in Construction Projects: The Mediating Role of Stakeholder Collaboration
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Emerging digital technologies such as building information modeling (BIM) and the Internet of Things (IoT) have been widely adopted in construction projects and have attracted great attention from researchers and practitioners ...
Generation of Extreme Precipitation over the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau Associated with TC Rashmi (2008)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, the development of an extreme precipitation event along the southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) by the approach of Tropical Cyclone (TC) Rashmi (2008) from the Bay of Bengal is examined using a ...
