Interactive Models for the Regulation of Lake Ontario
Extensive studies are underway to improve the regulation of Lake Ontario. These studies not only involve the inclusion of factors and interest groups not previously considered, but also...
The Regulation of Lake Ontario During the Spring of 1993; a Period of Record Supplies
A wet summer in 1992 and record water supplies to Lake Ontario during early 1993 resulted in very high levels on the lake. Actions by the International St. Lawrence River Board of Control...
Lake Ontario Regulation Utilizing an Expert System Approach Constrained by Interest Satisfaction Relationships
Mass balance of historic and predicted total basin supplies to Lake Ontario forms the basis of an Expert Systems model constrained by interest satisfaction (IS) relationships. The IS Model...
A Wind Driven Lake Circulation Finite Element Model for the Upper St. Marys River
The hydrodynamics of the Upper St. Marys River is simulated by a three dimensional steady state finite element model. The rigid lid and hydrostatic pressure assumptions are used in the...
Innovative Instrumentation for a Physical Model of River Ice Transport
Large physical models often require the use of innovative instrumentation and measurement techniques. Hydraulic models that attempt to simulate the effects of stationary ice covers put...
Application of Shotcrete for Ground Support at Inco Mines
In 1989, shotcrete was first successfully introduced for ground support in production areas at Frood Mine. Until then the only successful application of shotcrete had been in major permanent...
