Pre-Test Selection of Static Force and Displacement Measurement Locations for Damage Assessment
An incomplete set of static force and displacement measurements are used for parameter identification of linear elastic structures at the element level. Measurement locations and the level...

Engineering of Controlled-Drainage Systems
Soil-water management by water table control (via a dual purpose subdrainage-subirrigation system) is becoming popular in humid regions of the U.S. and Canada. Controlled-drainage is an...

Stochastic Analysis of Seasonal Hydraulic Conductivity
Infiltration data collected by a ring infiltrometer tests, for summer, fall, and spring seasons, were used to determine hydraulic conductivity using Philip's two-term infiltration equation....

Stabilizing Drop Structure by Drainage Modifications
East Drain Terminal Drop Structure is located in East Drain, an open toe drain of Palmetto Bend Dam, in the tide water area of south Texas. The drop structure was threatened by piping...

Agricultural Drains and Safety of Dams
Bonny Dam is located in east central Colorado on the South Fork Republican River. The dam's foundation is in the relatively porous Ogallala formation. Throughout the history of the dam,...

Wellfield Protection Program in Broward County, Florida
The Potable Water Wellfield Protection Program was initiated early in 1981. It examined land uses in the County, made an inventory of potential ground water pollution sources, compiled...

Principles of Ground-Water Protection
Successful wellhead protection activities depend on a thorough knowledge of the ground-water flow system and an understanding of how contaminants migrate through geologic formations. Once...

ETBC: Interactive Software for Blaney-Criddle Estimates of Evapotranspiration
ETBC is a menu-driven computer program which calculates monthly evapotranspiration (ET) using the USDA Soil Conservation Service version of the Blaney-Criddle formula, as described in...

Economical and Statistical Based On-Farm Irrigation Scheduling
Most irrigation scheduling techniques are not based upon the statistics of the irrigations or economics of irrigated crop production. Traditional irrigation scheduling is based upon average...

Predicting Water Quality as Affected by ET Using the Root Zone Water Quality Model
The Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM) is a physically based simulation model used to predict water and solute movement running from, moving through, and leaching out of the root zone....

Simulated Citrus Water Use from Shallow Groundwater
Citrus groves in south Florida are planted on poorly-drained soils that support a shallow water table which can contribute some or all of the citrus evapotranspiration (ET) requirement...

2-D Evaporation and Root Extraction in an FEM
Two-dimensional processes of soil evaporation and moisture extraction by plant roots (horizontal and vertical) were incorporated into a saturated/unsaturated finite element model (UNSAT2)...

Simulating the Effects of Deficit Irrigation for Furrow Systems
The distribution of irrigation water across a field can dramatically affects management of furrow irrigation systems as water supplies become limiting. To assess management strategies...

Soil Moisture and Runoff?Another Look
Infiltrometer studies conducted on numerous soil types in various locations of the United States which had soil moisture data were used to calculate the runoff Curve Number (CN) of both...

Water Quality Implications of Encapsulated Atrazine
This paper presents the movement of both encapsulated and wettable powder atrazine under no-till and conventional-till corn in the Coastal Plain physiographic region of Maryland. Soil...

Case Studies of Semi-Closed Pipeline Systems for Flexible Deliveries
The semi-closed pipeline system using the best aspects of the open and the closed pipeline systems, has many applications. It is the best adapted system for use with the variable flow...

Applications of Remote Sensing to Hydrology
This paper pulls together examples of current applications of remote sensing information to hydrology. Topics covered include rainfall, snow hydrology, soil moisture, evapotranspiration,...

ET from Shallow Groundwater Maintained by Controlled-Drainage/Subirrigation System
Soil-water management by maintaining a shallow groundwater level (watertable) via a dual purpose subdrainage-subirrigation system, is becoming popular in humid regions of the United States...

A Monumental Task
The geotechnical consultants, structural engineer and contractor combined to overcome difficult soils, underground subway structures and buried utilities when building the foundations...

Analysis of a Wharf for a Container Terminal
A balanced combination of sophisticated computer programs was employed to model the soil strata, foundation and structure of a wharf for a new container terminal in the Port of Topolobampo,...
