Potential for Greater Use of Wetlands for Waste Treatment in Northern Canada
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of wetlands for low-cost and energy-efficient treatment of municipal wastewater is not a new process. In the Northwest Territories, Canada, wetlands have not been used much for wastewater treatment due to the lack ...
Design of Stable Concave Slopes for Reduced Sediment Delivery
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Constructed slopes are traditionally given a planar form. However, natural slopes are more likely to be concave in cross section. In addition, laboratory and computational studies have demonstrated that concave slopes yield ...
Corrosion of Steel Reinforcement in Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Wrapped Concrete Cylinders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The rehabilitation, repair, and strengthening of concrete structures has increased worldwide with a growing number of systems employing externally applied fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. However, the service ...
Approximate Solution to the Sokolovskiĭ Concave Slope at Limiting Equilibrium
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The growth of precision autoguidance systems on construction equipment suggests that nonplanar slopes and landforms now can be constructed readily. Slopes with concave cross sections not only appear more like natural slopes, ...
A Dynamical Model of Drop Spreading in Electrohydrodynamic Jet Printing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Electrohydrodynamic jet (e-jet) printing is a microscale additive manufacturing technique used to print microscale constructs, including next-generation biological and optical sensors. Despite the many advantages to e-jet ...
Piling Framed Concrete Retaining Wall: Design Pressures and Stability Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The piling framed retaining wall (PFRW) is an innovative earth-retention system applicable for soils underlain by rock, which is ideal for applications where only limited right-of-way is available or adjacent structures ...
