Creep of Polycrystalline Ice
This paper discusses the extension of creep models for polycrystalline ice to include the effects of a non-monotonic loading history. Attention is focussed on cyclic loading since it is...

An Extended Mixture Approach for Modeling of Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Materials
A rate-independent, anisotropic model for Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Materials (FRCMs) is presented. A continuum damage/plasticity model for the concrete and an effective fiber model...

Thermomechanical Damage Due to Hydration in Large Concrete Dams
This paper presents the bases of a thermomechanical model able to describe the main evolution of concrete properties with aging. The model is based on the 'maturity'...

Accurate Computation of Freezing Index
'Freezing index' (cumulative degree-days below freezing) is used for predicting frost penetration depths and modelling pavement performance. Contour maps which illustrate geographic trends...

Behavior and Strength of Telescopic Steel Shores
To study the load distribution between concrete floors and shores during construction, the non-linear axial load-shortening behavior of a single post shore must be modeled properly. In...

Stresses in Concrete Armor Units
This book is derived from a Seminar at the Waterways Experiment Station, Coastal Engineering Research Center, Vicksburg, Mississippi held on November 7-8, 1989. It presents a state-of-the-art...

Hydraulic Engineering
This proceedings consists of papers presented at the ASCE National Convention on Hydraulic Engineering given July 30 to August 3, 1990 in San Diego, California. The Conference provided...

Bridges on Screen
Computer software can help engineers produce designs for more economical, constructable bridges in less time than conventional methods. Software is being put to work in bridge design departments...

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...

Effects of Uncertainties in Component Fragilities on Lifeline Seismic Risk Analysis
Accurate calculation of the seismic risk for lifelines requires modeling the system as a function of its components, and requires accurate modeling of two engineering factors: (1) the...

Aussie Steel
The 50-story Chifley Square Building being built in Sydney will be the tallest Australian steel building. Scheduled for completion in June 1992 at a cost of $310 million, it will house...

Numerical Model for Tsunami Run-Up
Originally published in: Journal of the Waterways, Harbors and Coastal Engineering Division, ASCE, WW3, August 1970, pp. 701-719...

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...

Advancement in Tidal Hydraulics
This paper will discuss advances in the field of tidal hydraulics since the inception of the ASCE Hydraulics Division 50 years ago. Activities of the Committees on Tidal Hydraulics of...

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...

Contributions by the Hydraulics Division of ASCE to the Advancement of Ground-Water Hydrology
Papers related to ground-water hydrology published in Proceedings of the ASCE and in Hydraulics Division journals from 1938 through mid-1988 are briefly summarized. The areas covered are...

Analyzing in 3D
Suggestions for modeling and evaluating three-dimensional (3D) structures are presented. These suggestions are based on the authors' sixteen years of day to day involvement...

Floating Membrane Supertankers: Are They Feasible?
Optimal shapes of long cylindrical membrane containers are obtained by restricting the circumferential membrane stress to be tensile and constant throughout the tanker. Optimality is achieved...

Some General Remarks on the Structural Behavior and Load-Extension Characteristics of Coated Fabrics with Special Reference to PTFE-Coated Glass-Fiber Fabric
The understanding of fabric behavior, and of coated fabrics in particular, is essential for the design and analysis of fabric structures. Although many research papers have been published...

Longitudinal Impact Loading of Transmission Towers
A scale model has been developed to study a containment failure design concept for longitudinal (along the direction of the conductor) impact loading of electrical transmission structures....
