RISPerformance of Geosynthetic-Encased Stone Columns in Embankment Construction: Numerical Investigation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a numerical investigation into the performance of geosynthetic-encased stone columns (GESCs) installed in soft ground for embankment construction. A three-dimensional finite-element model ...
Interaction between Tunneling and Groundwater—Numerical Investigation Using Three Dimensional Stress–Pore Pressure Coupled Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Because of increased public concern regarding the impact of tunneling on surrounding environments, the control of groundwater has become an essential part of the planning, design, and construction of a tunneling project. ...
Behavior of Braced and Anchored Walls in Soils Overlying Rock
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of analyses on the behavior of in situ walls, using the measured data collected from various deep excavation sites with multilayered ground conditions of soils overlying rock in Korea. A ...
Wave‐Induced Longshore Currents in Surf Zone
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the numerical model of longshore currents driven by irregular waves in the surf zone. The wave field is described using the wave number vector equations and the energy‐conservation equation with a ...
Persistent Multiple Jets and PV Staircase
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The persistence of multiple jets is investigated with a quasigeostrophic, two-layer, ?-plane channel model. Linearly unstable normal modes are found to be capable of qualitatively describing the eddy fluxes of the nonlinear ...

On the Causal Relationship between Poleward Heat Flux and the Equator-to-Pole Temperature Gradient: A Cautionary Tale
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n increase in the poleward heat or energy transport is often ascribed to a strengthening of the equator-to-pole gradient in temperature or in the top-of-the-atmosphere (TOA) net radiation. While this attribution conforms ...
Hydrological Modeling and Evaluation of Rainwater Harvesting Facilities: Case Study on Several Rainwater Harvesting Facilities in Korea
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a hydrological analysis of rainwater harvesting facilities was conducted using a model based on the IHACRES model. Using this model, the rainfall, rainfall loss, inflow to the storage tank, tank storage ...
Composite Loss Rate Model Combining Four Losses of Precipitation in a Watershed for Engineering Hydrology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In engineering hydrology, a lumped rainfall-runoff model applied to a watershed often requires a calculation of the effective rainfall, which deducts the precipitation losses from the total rainfall contributing to the ...
Linear Programming Method Considering Topographical Factors Used for Estimating Missing Precipitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new linear programming method with an option for topographical factors is developed for estimating missing precipitation. It is simply assumed that missing precipitation depth at a base station is expressed as a linear ...
