ASCE ( American Society of Civil Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment.

Closure to “Generalized Approach for Clear-Water Scour at Bridge Foundation Elements” by U. C. Kothyari, W. H. Hager, and G. Oliveto
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Flood Storage in Reservoirs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Flood storage in reservoirs controlled by free‐overflowing, rectangular spillways is investigated by accounting for arbitrary reservoir bathymetry and single‐peaked inflow hydrographs. The general solution of the storage ...
Modified Venturi Channel
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Flumes having a local diminution of channel width are widely used as discharge measurement structures. The present investigation considers the modified version of a cylinder positioned axially in a nearly horizontal, ...
Hydraulics of Circular Drop Manholes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Circular drop manholes are widely employed in steep urban drainage systems. Drop manholes may lead to poor hydraulic conditions if their energy dissipation is inadequate. The dominant hydraulic features of drop manholes ...
Discussion of “Hydraulic Characteristics of a Drop Square Manhole with a Downstream Control Gate” by Rita F. Carvalho and Jorge Leandro
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Near Field Characteristics of Landslide Generated Impulse Waves
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Landslide generated impulse waves were investigated in a two-dimensional physical laboratory model based on the generalized Froude similarity. The recorded wave profiles were extremely unsteady and nonlinear. Four wave ...
