Selected Papers from Chinese Journals of Structural Engineering
This book is an initial effort to introduce selected papers from journals published by the China Civil Engineering Society to ASCE membership. The twenty papers in this volume were selected...

Seismic Engineering
Research and Practice
This volume of Seismic Engineering: Research and Practice contains papers from twenty-two sessions of the 1989 ASCE Structures Congress. These papers represent a wide-ranging interest...

MATRIX.BYU
MATRIX.BYU is a general purpose Fortran program for personal computers which provides a flexible and user friendly platform for the input and output of matrix data, the execution of standard...

A Parallel Partitioning Method for Large-Scale Circuit Simulation
In this paper, we discuss a partitioning method for large-scale circuit in parallel computer simulation. The partitioning method maps the sparse and irregular circuit equations to a special...

Computerized Dynamic Human Factors Mannequins Assess and Create Products and Environments for an Aging Population
A PC-based human factors symbol library helps make designs accessible to a broad populace. The system and research results described were developed in three phases. Knowing that in order...

An Integrated Network Laboratory for Undergraduate Data Acquisition and Data Processing
The University of Wyoming College of Engineering has recently installed an integrated laboratory of 10 networked personal computers for undergraduate student use. These machines have been...

Conducting a Waterline Corrosion Evaluation
A study has been conducted to determine the level of corrosion activity occuring on the U.S. Navy's potable waterlines on Guam. The study evaluated soil parameters including...

A Method for Design and Evaluation of Rapid Sand Filters Treating Secondary Effluents
The information presented in this paper provides a framework for analysis of rapid sand filter performance. Process variables are quantitatively related to filter design variables in a...

Radon Resistant New Construction Practices
This paper highlights the basic principles for building radon-resistant houses and it groups the construction techniques into four categories, i.e., the barrier approach, soil ventilation...

Modeling of Gaseous Emission from Landfills and Other Area Sources
Several dispersion models based on the Gaussian equation are evaluated to assess their relative utility in modeling emission dispersion from an area source, such as a landfill. The VAPOR...

Preacquisition Environmental Site Assessments: Avoiding Common Errors and Omissions
The 1986 Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) established an 'innocent-purchaser' defense to environmental liability from ownership of contaminated...

Decision Framework for Assessment of Leaking UST's
A computer-based environmental planning tool, designed to help mitigate the environmental problems associated with leaking underground storage tanks (UST) is presented in this article....

Hazardous Waste Impacts on the Highway Planning and Property Acquisition Process
Since the advent of increased public awareness concerning hazardous waste and the enactment of statutes governing these wastes, hazardous waste has become an important component impacting...

Analysis of Model Uncertainty Using Bayesian Monte Carlo
Bayesian Monte Carlo analysis combines Bayesian inference with standard Monte Carlo techniques to provide improved estimates of the uncertainty in water quality model parameters and results....

Effect of Flow Conditions on Stream Reaeration Coefficients
Contrary to the findings of previous studies of channel-controlled stream reaches, it was found that, in four reaches of a small stream characterized by a series of pools and riffles,...

Estimation of Infiltration Rates from a Landfill
The Landfill Source Model (LSM) provides a physically-based, computationally efficient estimate of leachate emanating from a landfill. The model is PC-based and simulates a number of surface...

Transport of Injected Produced Water: A Sensitivity Study
This paper deals with the development and application of a model to assess potential environmental effects on Underground Sources of Drinking Water (USDW) due to the presence of an improperly...

An Expert System for Groundwater Management with Applications to Collier County, FL
This paper describes techniques used in frequency analysis, time series model building, forecasting, up-dating, and mapping. Domain knowledge of experts is transferred into the system...

Sensitivity of Non-Point Source Models to Net Rainfall
A sensitivity analysis of the ANSWERS model was conducted to explore the possible impact on model outputs of discretizing rainfall input data into short time increments of various durations....

A Multivariate Analysis of Stillwater Lakes, Nevada
Stillwater Lakes located in western Nevada has been experiencing an astounding number of fish and waterfowl deaths since August 1986. This problem is explored through a multivariate statistical...
