Some New Snyder Type Coefficients for Small Watersheds
Data collected on the Goodwin Creek watershed has produced a continuous hydrologic record from 37 rain gages and runoff record from 14 runoff stations within a drainage area of 8. 26 sq...
Changing Hydrology - The Middle Mississippi River
Observed daily flow and stage at major stream gages on the middle Mississippi River are numerically and graphically analyzed to quantify and illustrate the magnitude and seasonality of...
The Dallas Floodway Project
This paper explores the history of the Dallas Floodway project, past performance of the project under various flood conditions, recently updated hydrologic and hydraulic evaluations, and...
A New Method for Synthesizing a Six Hour Unit Hydrograph
A new methodology was devised that would use readily available basin physical parameters for the determination of unit graphs in undeveloped and ungaged areas. Rather than using small...
Rescuing the Everglades
After a century of trying to control Florida's Everglades, water management officials have decided that cooperating with nature is better. A new strategy known as the Rainfall...
Cleanup on a Large Scale
The San Gabriel Basin yields 200,000 ac ft of groundwater a year from 400 supply wells. This water makes up 95% of the Valley's water supply. Already 30% of the water pumped...
Modeling Permissive Movements in TRANSYT-7F
Traffic Network Study Tool (TRANSYT-7F) is one of the most widely used traffic flow analysis and traffic signal timing optimization models in the United States and elsewhere. Through 'Release...
Conversion of the MIDAS Accident Analysis Model
The MIDAS (Michigan Dimensional Accident Surveillance) System has been developed to provide accident analysis capability. A microcomputer version of MIDAS is being developed to make the...
Teacher Friendly Transportation Programs
This contribution describes a set of computer programs that has mainly been developed to demonstrate operating and possibilities of mainframe programs during lectures. The program set...
Expert Systems for Traffic Signal Control
The level of service achieved by a pretimed signal timing control strategy implemented at an isolated intersection incurring saturated and over-saturated demand varies with actual traffic...
Engineering Hydrology
The Surface Water Hydrology Committee, ASCE Hydraulics Division, sponsored this first Symposium on Engineering Hydrology. The Symposium was held jointly with the ASCE National Conference...
Ground Water Management
This manual is designed to present an outline of groundwater hydrology, the details of planning for groundwater management, and a process of selection and implementation of management...
Evaluation of Sediment Transport and Friction Factor Equations Using MOBED
Three sediment transport rate equations and the same number of friction factor equations for mobile boundary channel flows were evaluated using a mobile boundary flow model called MOBED....
FEM-Flow Analysis in Hydraulic Turbomachinery Runners
Finite element calculations of the flow through distributor and runner of hydraulic turbomachines are presented. The method is quasi-3D and inviscid, but the deviations from a potential...
Uncertainty Analysis of Field Turbine Performance Measurements
This paper presents comprehensive uncertainty analyses of two different flow measurement methods for field tests on turbines. The 'water to wire' efficiency was...
A Review of the Cross-Flow Turbine
The historical development of the cross-flow turbine is briefly presented together with a summary of the well-documented one-dimensional theory. Two-dimensional aspects of runner design...
Laser-2-Focus Flow Measurements in the Runner of a Bulb Turbine and Comparison with Calculation
Flow measurements are presented, which were carried out near and inside the 4-blade runner of an axial model bulb turbine of double adjustable type. These measurements were performed by...
New Concepts for Prelininary Hydropower Design
Hydropower generation on steep mountainous streams where storage is impractical can usually be made economical if: the flow duration curve shows sufficient energy available in the high...
Design and Manufacture of Turbine Runner Blades Using CAD/CAM-Technology
Interactive blade design, fluid flow analysis, stress analysis and NC-matching of both model and prototype blades are working from a common data base and are demonstrated in this paper....
Computerized Engineering for the Hydraulic Design of Hydro-Turbine Stay Vanes
To design a turbine stay vane as an integral part of the spiral case/stay vane/wicket gate waterpassage, both the vane geometry and the gate/vane position must be developed and analyzed....
