Performance Evaluation of Rim-Drive Turbines
This paper will provide a performance evaluation of the technical and economic advantages and disadvantages of the rim-drive turbine after more than one year of operation. Technical aspects...

Internal Sealing of Large Diameter Pipelines
Underground piping has traditionally been repaired by making excavations at the joints and completing the repairs externally. However, with increasing labor costs, underground utility...

Filters and Leakage Control in Embankment Dams
In the practice of earth dam engineering there has been some doubt that downstream filters could be relied upon completely to control and seal concentrated leaks through impervious dam...

Membrane Sealing of Rouchain Dam
A synthetic sealing membrane was used to prevent excessive leakage through the facing of an embankment dam. The works, which were completed rapidly and at low cost, enabled the reservoir...

Preliminary Analysis of Large Penetration Enclosures for Containment Vessels Subject to Beyond Design Basis Loadings
Numerical simulations of the macro-deformations of the sealing surfaces (gasketed junctures) of a PWR steel containment vessel's equipment hatch subjected to accident loadings...

Discs Reduce Manhole Infiltration
The Department of Public Works for New Castle County, Del., conducted a study of infiltration at their over 30,000 sanitary sewer manholes. The study indicated that up to 60% of their...
