Selection of Hole Size for Fluidization Pipes
Two-dimensional fluidization experiments are performed on fine and medium coarse quartz sands at depths of 25.4 and 42 cm. Four supply pipes are used with orifice diameters of 1.587 mm...

A Semi-Empirical Model for an OC-OTEC Spout Flash Evaporator
A phenomenological model for the thermal-hydraulics of a spout flash evaporator is presented in this paper. The model considers the two-phase flow behavior both in the spout and in the...

OTEC Sea Water Systems Technology Status
A workshop was conducted in April 1988 to provide an expert critique of the fabrication and deployment options for the seawater systems (all piping required to draw the seawater) of land-based...

OTEC Seawater Pipe Cost Comparisons
Describes a material which can substantially reduce the cost of seawater pipes and two methods for building and deploying such pipes for use in land-based OTEC installations, outfall sewers,...

Resin Transfer Process Modelling: Computational & Experimental
In most cases, the resin transfer molding (RTM) researcher has a fundamental understanding of composites and possibly some mold design experience. The areas of resin flow dynamics and...

Significance of Yield Surface Corner-Like Effects in Inelastic Stability Solutions
This paper presents the author's experiences with finite element prediction of the inelastic stability of steel plate structures. The implications of linear versus nonlinear...

Hydraulics/Hydrology of Arid Lands (H?AL)
This proceedings consists of papers presented at the International Symposium on the Hydraulics and Hydrology of Arid Lands which was held in conjunction with the 1990 National Conference...

Grouting Slip Liners: The New Inside Story
There are approximately 800,000 miles of water and sewer pipelines in the U.S. that need remedial work. About 2% need work each year, usually due to normal or accidental corrosion. Normal...

Stratified Flows
This volume contains the edited and refereed proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Stratified Flows, convened on February 3-5, 1987 in Pasadena, California. It consists of...

Future Freight
In 21st-century America, most long-distance cargo will be transported via pipelines linking major cities. The most versatile freight pipeline is the capsule variety, which carries cargo...

Progress in Hydromechanics
The historical development of hydromechanics in the fifty years since the founding of the Hydraulics Division is reviewed. Rouse's 1938 text, Fluid Mechanics for Hydraulic Engineers, provided...

Surface Water Hydrology
A brief history is presented of activities in surface water hydrology by the Hydraulics Division since 1938. Included is an historical review of division activities in such areas as precipitation...

Research in ASCE's Hydraulics Division
Research in the Hydraulics Division of ASCE during the last 50 years has undergone changes in both technical content and procedures. Open channel flow, sediment transport and pipe flow...

Cold Regions Hydrology and Hydraulics
The Cold Regions Hydrology and Hydraulics Monograph is the eighth in a series of monographs prepared by the ASCE Technical Council on Cold Regions Engineering. The book is intended to...

Water Jets Fight Silt
In the largest U.S. application to date, an array of hydraulic jets is being used to scour a ship berth at the Port of Grays Harbor on the coast of Washington. The system has been in place...

The Truck Commodity Survey in the New York-New Jersey Metropolitan Area
The Truck Commodity Survey was designed to gather information on the characteristics of truck traffic at toll barriers with minimal disruption to traffic flows. It was developed by the...

Changes in Tubular Design Codes
This paper summarizes a number of changes in design provisions for tubular structures that have recently been adopted. These are the result of a number of research advances concerning...

An Optimal Design of Steel Pipe Pile Foundation
This paper presents an optimal design method for the steel pipe pile foundation of bridge pier using a nonlinear programming. It is firstly assumed that an imaginary wall model behaves...

The Fatigue Performance of Welded Joints in a Marine Environment
The fatigue lives of plate-plate, pipe-plate, and tubular welded joints tested in seawater under free corrosion, optimum cathodic protection and cathodic overprotection measured in the...

Inelastic Response of Buried Pipelines Due to Landslide Effects
During earthquakes, a buried pipeline may experience significant loading as a result of large relative displacements of the ground along its length. Large ground movements can be caused...
