Proactive Odor Control Using Computer Modeling
The City of Los Angeles (City) is currently designing the East Central Interceptor Sewer (ECIS) as a major relief sewer. The pipeline will convey wastewater flows that originate upstream...
Oxygen Transfer Similitude for the Auto-Venting Turbine
Perimeter Load Transfer in Drilled Shafts in the Eagle Ford Formation
Results of six full-scale compression loading tests at four sites in the Dallas area are considered. Compressive strengths (qc) of the rock varied...
Heat Transfer in Vertical Concentric Cylinders in a High Level Nuclear Waste Repository
Modeling free convection heat transfer in an cylindrical annular enclosure is still an active area of research and an important problem to be addressed in the high level nuclear waste...
Isotopic and Trace Element Variability in Altered and Unaltered Tuffs at Yucca Mountain, Nevada
Reference stratigraphic sections near Yucca Mountain, Nevada were established and sampled in outcrop areas where the volcanic rocks have been minimally altered. Isotopic and trace element...
Object Oriented Design of Finite Element Software for Transient, Non-Linear Coupling Problems
The application of the Finite Element Method to general transient, non-linearly coupled problems calls for high conceptual clarity in software design. In order to attain extendibility...

Principles of Infrared Thermography and Application for Assessment of the Deterioration of the Bridge Deck at the Zoo Interchange
This paper details the principles of infrared thermography from the underlying theoretical considerations to the physical constraints involved with performing the test. Infrared (IR) thermography...
Problems With Armor-Stone Quality on Lakes Michigan, Huron, and Erie
The instances of deterioration of armor stone at coastal structures on the Great Lakes result from numerous distinct causes, both intrinsic and extrinsic. However, the proof of specific...
The Optimum Gravity Dam
A method is presented for optimizing the cost of a dam by varying the properties of the material and the shape of the dam to produce the lowest cost water barrier to perform the required...
Design of the Boney Falls RCC Emergency Spillway
The Boney Falls Emergency Spillway was designed as a mass roller compacted concrete structure. Alternative designs considered include a fuse plug, lowering the embankment and paving with...
