    • Performance of Coanda-Effect Screens in a Cold Climate 

      Hanne Nøvik; Leif Lia; Henrik Opaker (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)
      This study assesses the performance of a Coanda-effect intake screen for a small hydropower plant during winter operations. The unique self-cleaning screen utilizes the Coanda-effect for withdrawing water. This screen ...

    • Lateral Pile Analysis Frozen Soil Strength Criteria 

      G. Scott Crowther (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)
      This paper presents a design approach to analyze the effects of lateral loads on piles embedded in a layered frozen soil profile. This design approach makes use of a commercially available computer program that uses

    • Thermal Design Considerations for Raised Structures on Permafrost 

      J. M. Oswell; J. F. Nixon (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)
      With advances in the ability to model complex geothermal conditions, the aspect of soil structure interaction as it relates to long-term changes in the geothermal regime can be considered. Traditional geothermal modeling ...

    • Influence of Microstructure on the Consolidation of Compressed Snow 

      Johan Wåhlin; Alex Klein-Paste (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)
      Snow falling on roads is rapidly compacted into a hard crust which is difficult to remove, and which may become slippery at temperatures near melting. To avoid this, chemicals are often spread in a measure called anticompaction ...

    • Site Investigations of Fuel Spill Migration into Permafrost 

      Orlando B. Andersland; Kevin W. Biggar (American Society of Civil Engineers, 1999)

    • Regulating a Long-Distance Canal System with Floating Ice Cover in the Winter 

      Mengkai Liu; Xiaobo Feng; Changde Wang; Guanghua Guan (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)
      According to the hydraulic conditions and differences between rivers and long-distance canal systems, a juxtaposition floating ice cover model has been developed to ensure the safety of long-distance canal system operations ...

    • Analyzing Loads from Ice Shedding Conductors for UHV Transmission Towers in Heavy Icing Areas 

      Fengli Yang; Jingbo Yang; Hongjie Zhang (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)
      In this paper, a finite element analysis (FEA) model of seven span continuous conductors and insulators for an ultra high voltage (UHV) transmission line in a heavy icing area was established for ice shedding analysis. The ...

    • Developing Anti-Icing Airfield Runways Using Conductive Concrete with Renewable Energy 

      Ernie Heymsfield; Adam Osweiler; Panneer Selvam; Mark Kuss (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)
      Snow, ice, and slush runway conditions significantly impact aircraft landing and takeoff safety. Although airport operators do an excellent job in maintaining runway safety during winter conditions, snow removal is costly ...

    • Snow Pressure on a Semiflexible Retaining Structure 

      Monica Barbero; Fabrizio Barpi; Mauro Borri-Brunetto; Valerio De Biagi; Gianmarco Olivero; Oronzo Pallara (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)
      Snow avalanche hazard is one of the most critical aspects in the urbanization of mountainous areas. The risk from these natural phenomena can be reduced if proper countermeasures for reducing the danger or preventing ...

    • Observations on Some Physical-Chemical Characteristics of River-Ice Breakup 

      D. Milburn; T. D. Prowse (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2000)
      Northern river breakups are a spectacular process capable of modifying hydrological, geomorphological, and biological regimes. To begin an assessment of the physical and chemical characteristics associated with river-ice ...
