A Simple Empirical Model of Aeration at Navigation Dams
In a study of aeration at 28 dams in the upper Ohio River basin, site-specific least-squares linear regression models were used to describe the dissolved oxygen deficit below each dam...
Theoretical Investigation of Oxygenating Bubble Plumes
Rehabilitation of lakes by oxygenation with air or oxygen plumes has been proven to be biologically feasible. Oxygenating plumes are released from areal sources and the gases are absorbed...
Water Surface Flow and Exchange Induced by a Bubble Plume
Aeration is a common method to increase dissolved oxygen in the water of stratified (or non-stratified) lakes. In this method compressed air is injected at some depth, and gas is transferred...
Steady Turbulent Gas Desorption in Surface Condenser Tubes
A one-dimensional steady two-phase separated flow model in conjunction with the energy and mass transfer equations and an associated turbulent mass transfer coefficient model are utilized...

Ground-Water Modeling Without Fear
Computerized ground-water modeling has leapt from the cloistered laboratory to the field project as more and more programs are written for the personal computer. These easy-to-understand...
Electronic Data Acquisition and Analysis for Soil Dynamics Applications
Recent advances in micro-computer-based data acquisition hardware and software systems have created a window of opportunity for the soil dynamics specialist. Increases in the number of...
Use of Bender Elements in Soil Dynamics Experiments
Transducers employing piezoelectric bender elements have been found to be versatile sources and receivers of small-amplitude shear waves, with multiple potential applications. The constitutive...
Use of Piezoceramic Bender Elements in Soil Dynamics Testing
The use of piezoceramic bender elements is described to measure small strain, shear wave velocity distributions in soil models used in centrifuge and shake table testing. Experimental...
GIS Plans Wastewater Future
When the Public Works Department began phase 3 construction on Albuquerque, N.M.'s current wastewater treatment plant in 1990, it was time to begin thinking about the next...
Computing in Civil Engineering and Symposium on Data Bases
This proceedings consists of the papers presented at the conference Computing in Civil Engineering and Symposium on Data Bases held in conjunction with A/E/C Systems '91 from May 6-8,...
Out of the Lab...and into the Field?
Materials experts know very little about concrete's basic structure. Now, though, engineers at a research center sponsored by the National Science Foundation are working on...
Earthquake Considerations in Design of the Los Angeles Metro
This paper discusses the earthquake design of the Los Angeles Metro. The design earthquake parameters are presented and discussed in light of the behavior of buried structures subjected...
San Francisco Double-Deck Viaduct Retrofits
Following the Loma Prieta Earthquake in October 1989, six double-deck reinforced concrete viaducts in San Francisco were closed because of some isolated damage, and as a precaution for...
Bridge Seismic Retrofit Prioritization
This paper describes a mathematical model developed to produce an index by which bridges in a network can be prioritized systematically for seismic retrofitting. The model incorporates...
Regional Risk Assessment of Environmental Contamination from Oil Pipelines
This paper presents a methodology for assessing the risk of environmental contamination from oil pipeline leaks due to earthquakes. Risk is measured both as volume of oil released and...
Seismic Hazard Along a Crude Oil Pipeline in the Event of an 1811-1812 Type New Madrid Earthquake
This paper presents an assessment of the seismic hazard that exists along a major crude oil pipeline (pipeline 22). An 1811-1812 type New Madrid earthquake with moment magnitude 8.2 is...
