An Ocean Engineering Program for the 21st Century
An increasing number of technological changes will occur during the next decade, and many of these changes will significantly impact engineering education programs, especially in the field...

Static Wave Force Procedure for Platform Design
Since results from the Ocean Test Structure were presented at Civil Engineering in the Oceans IV in 1979, there have been numerous laboratory experiments and a few full-scale measurements...

The SIMBAT Software Package for Stochastic Interpolation of Ocean Wave Kinematics as an Aid in the Engineering Design of Large Floating Structures
Geostatistical techniques of nonconditional and conditional simulation are used in a new public domain computer software package, named SIMBAT, to stochastically interpolate ocean wave...

Recent Wave Kinematics Experimental Studies
Kinematics in the near surface region of water waves have been measured with a laser Doppler anemometer in the laboratory. The major results of these recent wave kinematics measurements...

Spectral and Statistical Characteristics of Wind Waves Off Canary Islands
Wave climate around Canary Islands is studied by means of statistical and spectral techniques. Maximum Entropy Method is used for obtaining the spectral density function. Autocorrelation...

Three-Dimensional Circulation Modeling of the Coastal and Ocean Environments
Incursion of the loop current, a meandering feature of Gulf of Mexico large-scale circulation, may produce large hydrodynamic forces on the offshore structures. The present study is to...

Fiber Ropes for Ocean Engineering in the 21st Century
Recent advances in synthetic fiber ropes will greatly influence the practice of civil engineering in the oceans during the 21st Century. New fibers have moduli almost as high as steel...

Advanced Structures in Very Deep Water
Factors which are largely economic will lead to the requirement to design and deploy small numbers of large platforms and large numbers of small platforms in water depths of up to 4 km...

Composites for Offshore Applications: A Multidisciplinary Education Program for the Marine Industry
Composites are increasingly being considered for offshore and other marine structural applications. Polymeric matrix composites reinforced with glass, carbon, and aramids offer substantial...

Use of X-Ray Computed Tomography in the Study of Marine Sediments
X-ray computed tomography (CT scanning) is primarily a medical imaging technique. When applied to marine sediments, it responds predominately to the spatial density distribution within...

Internationalization of Engineering Professions
The most salient features impacting the development of our deepwater frontier areas are considered. The areas of higher potential for deepwater reserves are identified. The integrated...

Old Problems and New Challenges in Marine Geotechnical Engineering
The discipline of marine geotechnical engineering originated nearly five decades ago, primarily as a result of the offshore oil and gas industry. As this industry moved into deeper waters,...

Utilization of Waste Materials in Civil Engineering Construction
Industrial growth has increased the volume of wastes generated from energy production, mining, industrial processes and civil works. For economic and related reasons, the use of waste...

Electrokinetic Cleanups
Electrokinetic remediation of contaminated soils is a relatively new research area. Electrokinetic phenomena can be used to create barriers, and move particles, including pollutants such...

Small Utility GIS
Geographic information systems are revolutionizing much of the civil engineering field, providing engineers and managers with a new tool to relate databases and maps. But despite the benefits...

The Caisson Solution
Detroit is expanding its wastewater treatment plant to drastically reduce combined sewer overflows. The expansion, however, is being done on an extremely congested 4 acre tract of land...

Norway's Olympic Cavern
A mountainous task had been undertaken by Norwegian firms in constructing the world's largest in-mountain colosseum for the 1994 Winter Olympic Games in Norway. The Norwegian...

Civil Engineering in the Oceans V
This proceedings is a collection of technical papers presented at Civil Engineering in the Oceans V (CEO V) specialty conference held at College Station, Texas on November 2-5, 1992. Initiated...

Structures Congress '92
Compact Papers
These Congresses provide a forum for the practicing engineers, researchers and educators. The involvement of numerous ASCE Divisions has helped to create a program that will appeal to...

Journal of Professional Issues in Engineering Education and Practice
The Journal of Professional Issues in Engineering Education and Practice presents issues of broad professional interest and diverse views of engineering education, and professional practice. Papers examine...
