Impact on Water Supply of a Seismically Damaged Water Delivery System
This paper presents the damage evaluation of a water delivery system caused by the ground shaking in the event of an earthquake by using the LIFELINE-W computer program. The adequacy of...
Field Measurements of Tracer Gas Transport Induced by Barometric Pumping
Geomechanics of Subsidence Due to Pumping of Groundwater
In this talk we describe a nonlinear theory for the classical problem of pumping of groundwater from a layered soil. The model soil system consists of three horizontal layers where a very...
A Multiple Disk Centrifugal Pump as an Artifical Ventricle
A pulsatile, multiple disk, centrifugal pump has been analysed and tested for potential use as an artificial ventricle. The pump is similar to a Tesla Turbine design which consists of...
Design and Maintenance Factors Affecting Application Uniformity of Low Pressure Center-Pivot Irrigation Systems
Uniformity tests were conducted on 30 center-pivot sprinkler systems installed with one of six different low pressure nozzle types or high pressure impact sprinklers. Well designed and...
Scheduling of Ground Water Pumpage in Alluvial Aquifers to Minimize the Impact on Surface Water Diversions
The purpose of this paper is to present a methodology to administer the withdrawal of ground water from a basin where stream-aquifer systems are hydraulically connected. The administrative...
Vortex Suppression in Wet-Pit Pump Intakes
Two distinct examples to suppress both air-entraining and boundary-attached subsurface vortices in large vertical pump intakes are presented that were developed by means of hydraulic model...
Energy Efficient Pump Station Operation with a Pump Switching Constraint
Pump operation scheduling has become a significant practical and research concern as utilities increase their computer usage. This paper presents an integer programming algorithm which...
Hydrologic Investigation of the April, 1983 Flooding in New Orleans, Louisiana
During the rainstorm of April 6-7, 1983, a shell ramp was constructed over State Highway 406, closing the relatively shallow depression formed by the roadway passing over the levee which...
PS 5 Sewage Lagoon Embankment Stabilization
In 1981 an embankment containing a three-cell wastewater treatment lagoon was constructed adjacent to the northern edge of the Pump Station 5 gravel pad on the Trans Alaska Pipeline System....
Compaq Center East Water Management Plan
This Water Management Plan attempts to balance the many goals which were established in the Master Plan. Major areas of natural vegetation have been preserved. Stormwater quality pond/wetland...
Reliability of Model Prediction for Pump and Treat Strategies
For the remediation of aqueous phase plumes extending over large areas simulation models are often used to predict the response of the aquifer system and the contaminant concentrations...
An Alternate Formulation of Time as a Decision Variable to Facilitate Real-Time Operation of Water Supply Systems
With the advent of a new focus on energy conservation and the availability of cost efficient computer technology, many water utilities are investigating new ways to improve the efficiency...
Case Studies on the Use of Semi-Standalone Control Loops for the Management of Regional Public Water Supply
The West Coast Regional Water Supply Authority is charged with the operation and management of the public water supply that serves over 1 million people in the Tampa Bay Area of Florida....
A Comparison of Two Large Scale NLP Strategies for Determining Optimal Pump Station Controls
To solve the general nonlinear problem which is not simplified using the uniform spatial demand patterns, a two-level hierarchial scheme has been identified. The purpose of this decomposition...
Effects of Artificial Heart Pumping on Hemorheology
Alterations in hemorheology were studied in 19 patients supported by the Jarvik-7 total artificial heart (TAH) anywhere from 1 to 48 days as a bridge-to-cardiac transplantation. Abnormally...
