Quantifying the Impact of Climate Change and Human Activities on Multiobjective Water Resource Management in the Hanjiang River Basin, China
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)AbstractThe water resources system is at risk of water deficit due to climate change and significant agricultural and industrial development. Comprehensively quantifying the impact of climate change or human activities on ... -
Relationship between Environmental Values and the Evaluation of Watershed Conservation Plans that Benefit the Community Versus the Individual
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2026)AbstractPrevious work has shown that human values can directly affect behavior and decision-making. Here, we investigated how the four human values thought to underlie environmental beliefs and behaviors (altruistic, ... -
Water Resource Allocation Management and Dam Catchment Performance Evaluation Using the WEAP Model: A Case Study of Iran’s Bakhtegan Catchment
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)AbstractMeeting water demands with high reliability and allocation priority in watershed-delineated areas is an important challenge for decision-makers, especially in drought-prone regions. The purpose of this study is to ... -
The Relationship between Water Consumption and Economic Growth at the National, Regional, and Provincial Levels in China
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)AbstractBalancing economic growth with water consumption is essential for sustainable development. Water scarcity caused by vigorous economic expansion can be alleviated with balance. This paper employs the reduced-form ... -
A Multiscale Method to Improve Social Vulnerability Estimation for Water Infrastructure System Planning and Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)AbstractIn recent years, concerns have grown over the risks posed by climate change, droughts, floods, and other hazards to the most vulnerable populations. As a result, the quantification of socioecologic vulnerability ... -
Water Balance Modeling as a Tool for Assessing the Inventory Flows of Urban Water Systems and Water Consumption in Buildings
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)AbstractA water balance modeling method was developed and applied to assess the water flow impact on urban water systems and water consumption in buildings. The method is based on the computational tool Aquacycle and a ... -
A Multistep Optimization Approach to Rehabilitate a Deteriorated and Intermittent Water Distribution Network
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)AbstractIntermittent water supply increases operational and maintenance costs for the water utilities and leads to a negative impact on the customers. In the context of the Battle of Intermittent Water Supply (BIWS), a ... -
Finite-Difference Spreadsheet Calculation of Stream Depletion through Confined and Delayed-Yield Aquifers with Streambed Incision and Bank Flux
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)AbstractThe Delayed Impact Calculator (the Calculator) is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet workbook programmed with Visual Basic for Applications macro code to streamline finite-difference quantification of dynamic stream-aquifer ... -
Resonance-Induced Interfacial Mixing: A Challenge in Modeling Fluid Mud Entrainment under Surface Wave Action
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2026)Abstract Motivated by observations of fluid mud mixing under surface wave motion, this study presents a scenario wherein the prevailing modeling of fluid mud transport fails to estimate entrainment under surface wave action. ... -
Application of a Semiempirical Analytical Model to Predict Erosion of a Texas Coastal Defense Dune System during Storms under Climate Change
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2026)Abstract This study assesses the feasibility of a beach and dune system as flood defense against storm surge along the coastlines of the Houston–Galveston area, proposed as a part of the Coastal Texas Project. We apply a ... -
Damage Evolution Analysis of Loess Slope under Dynamic Compaction Based on the Multielectrode Resistivity Method
