An Analysis of the Flow of a Viscoelastic Fluid Between Arbitrary Two-Dimensional Surfaces Subject to Normal High Frequency Oscillations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytic solution is presented for the flow of a viscoelastic fluid between arbitrary but sufficiently smooth two-dimensional surfaces, one of which is subjected to small high frequency ...
Effects of Woody Vegetation on Seepage-Induced Deformation and Related Limit State Analysis of Levees
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Work in this paper investigates the effects of woody vegetation on soil hydraulic conductivity and the related probability of exceeding deformation-based performance limit states. A summary of results obtained from laboratory ...
Deformation-Based Limit State Analysis of Embankment Dams Including Geometry and Water Level Effects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The research presented in this paper is focused on the effect of various parameters on the deformation response of embankment dams and the corresponding performance limit states. The parameters considered include the ...
Demonstration and Evaluation of State-of-the-Art Wastewater Collection Systems Condition Assessment Technologies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Condition assessment of wastewater collection systems is a vital part of a utility’s asset management program. Reliable information on pipe condition is needed to prioritize rehabilitation and replacement projects, given ...
Modeling Regional-Scale Wildland Fire Emissions with the Wildland Fire Emissions Information System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: s carbon modeling tools become more comprehensive, spatial data are needed to improve quantitative maps of carbon emissions from fire. The Wildland Fire Emissions Information System (WFEIS) provides mapped estimates of ...
Liquefaction Resistance of Soils: Summary Report from the 1996 NCEER and 1998 NCEER/NSF Workshops on Evaluation of Liquefaction Resistance of Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Following disastrous earthquakes in Alaska and in Niigata, Japan in 1964, Professors H. B. Seed and I. M. Idriss developed and published a methodology termed the “simplified procedure” for evaluating liquefaction resistance ...
