Abstract: Bendway weirs are hydraulic control structures found in watercourses that range in scale from small streams to large rivers. They are designed to be submerged, broad-crested weirs, typically placed in groups on the outer ...

Abstract: The ability to accurately simulate sediment transport processes in natural and engineered systems is crucial to both engineers and scientists. Many researchers have worked on the development of methods that yield reliable ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a framework for the design optimization of geometric nonlinearities developed by active elements embedded in prestressable, statically indeterminant, truss-like aerospace structures for the purpose of ...
