Ocean Wave Kinematics, Dynamics and Loads on Structures
An international symposium on
Putting Wetlands to Work
Wetlands, whether natural or engineered, have enormous potential to clean up wastewater, but in the past, the public called on civil engineers to drain wetlands en masse as a public benefit....
Cliffside Correction
Construction of a 10 km sewer collector in Valpara�so, Chile, came to a halt due to construction difficulties experienced during pipe jacking operations. Analysis revealed not only construction...
Role of Constituents on the Behavior of Flowable Fly Ash Fill
Flowable fills are increasingly used as backfill materials for pipes and retaining structures because of ease of placement and performance of the solidified material. But the role of its...

Monumental Restorations
Modern nondestructive field surveys and state-of-the-art static dynamic monitoring systems provide important information for historical renovations while ensuring that the structure remains...
Seismic and Dynamic Analysis and Design Considerations for High Level Nuclear Waste Repositories
This committee report was created to fulfill two primary objectives: 1) to provide guidance for assessing and defining the dynamic loads that must be considered in the design of a repository...
Watching Under Boston
Managing the daily operations of Boston's Central Artery/Ted Williams Tunnel project requires integrating a variety of hi-tech systems to ensure efficient traffic flow. The...
Observation and Modeling in Numerical Analysis and Model Tests in Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction Problems
Experimental and analytical studies have both involved soil-structure interaction. Experimental studies offer an opportunity to directly observe the complex phenomena, while analytical...

Water for a Changing Global Community
This six-volume collection contains the papers presented at the 27th Congress of the International Association of Hydraulic Research on Water for a Changing Global Community. The Proceedings...
Seismic Analysis and Design for Soil-Pile-Structure Interactions
Pile foundations are used extensively to support structures in seismic regions around the world. For years, geotechnical engineers have neglected to consider the interaction soil-pile...
Bringing Low Flow to Eskimos
Engineers in Alaska initiated a program to bring potable water and wastewater service to a town of 500 Yup'ik Eskimos. This entailed building a 7.2 km boardwalk over permafrost...
Grouting to Great Depths
Logan Martin dam on the Coosa River in Alabama has been plagued by underseepage since its construction in 1964. The karst forming the dam's foundation allows water to flow...
