Experiments on Baroclinic Eddy Evolution and Stability in Rotating Continuously Stratified Systems
The Effects of Rotation on Selective Withdrawal from a Density-Stratified Reservoir
Stratified Rotating Flow Past Isolated Obstacles
The Evolution of Cyclonic Disturbance and Lee Waves Over a Topography in a Rapidly Rotating Stratified Flow
Evaluation of the Rotation Capacity of Wide-Flange Beams Using Shell Finite Elements
Numerical simulation can be useful for planning of experimental tests, performance of parametric studies, and achieving an understanding of complex three-dimensional behavior that may...
Verification of Local Modes in a Two-Dimensional Tidal Model
Based on a generalized model equation, a two-dimensional hybrid finite element model has been developed to study tidal waves of incompressible, homogeneous fluid in rotational flows. In...
High-Resolution Two Dimensional Advective Transport
The paper describes a two-dimensional high-resolution scheme for advective transport that is based on a Eulerian-Lagrangian method with a flux limiter. The scheme is applied to the problem...
The Lower Mississippi River and the Coriolis Force
Weather patterns and large bodies of water respond to the forces generated by the earth's rotation. A large north-south flowing river, such as the Lower Mississippi River,...
Vibration Measurements in Condition Monitoring
Vibration measurements as condition monitoring helps discovering defects and wear at an early stage, and is used to plan repairs and maintenance according to plans for water consumption,...
Domed Renovations
Inside the granddaddy of domed stadiums, the Houston Astrodome, 10,000 new seats and 72 new suites were hung from a strengthened structure. Using a variety of working-with-what-we've-got...
Space Artificial Gravity Facilities: An Approach to Their Construction
In the course of adaptation to a space microgravity environment, humans experience cardiovascular deconditioning, loss of muscle mass, and loss of bone minerals. One possible solution...
Solutions to Space Station Designs
Any space station that is to be designed for extended human use may require gravity. The artificial gravity field required can be produced by rotating the structure. As the Soviets have...
Making Use of Contaminated Soils
Using hot-mix asphalt (HMA) is one answer to contaminated soil. HMA plants can be modified to accept some contaminated soil�a boon not only to the generator of the soil but the asphalt...
Irrigation Water Management with Rotation Scheduling Policies
Rotation schedules are delivery-system oriented and represent relatively low capitol investment in system components and system management, but are not usually responsive enough to crop...
A Simulation Procedure for On-Farm Irrigation Systems Planning
A simulation modeling package has been developed for modeling on-farm irrigation water supply and application systems. The modeling package can consider up to 6 different application systems...
Synopsis: Ozark-Webbers Falls Turbine Repairs
The Ozark and Webbers Falls powerhouses were designed and constructed under the supervision of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers and are located on the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation...
Elasticity and Plasticity of Concrete under Principal Stress Rotation
Experiment on Stability of an Impulsively Started Rotating Flow
Classification and Behavior of Meander Migration
Meander migrations on the Mississippi River between Cairo, Illinois and Baton Rouge, Louisiana for the time period between the years 1765 and 1930 were classified into six categories based...
Building on Muck
The Craney Island Disposal Area at Norfolk, Va. is a 2,500 acre depository for material dredged from ports and channels in the Hampton Roads. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers extended...
