Influence of Facing on the Construction and Structural Performance of GRS Bridge Abutments
(2020-05-08)
Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil-Integrated Bridge System (GRS-IBS) technology has been developed significantly over the last decade through extensive support and promotion by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). It is ...
Seismic Analysis of Single and Grouped Helical Piles in Dense Sand with Soil-Structure Interaction
(2020)
The successful performance of helical piles under many loading conditions, specifically earthquake motions, make them very popular. Nevertheless, only a few, limited, realistic and quantitative studies on their seismic ...
Expanding In-situ Surface Water Quality Monitoring Techniques for Optically Complex Inland Waters Utilizing small Unoccupied Aerial Systems (sUAS)
(2021-05-14)
Remote sensing is described as the art and science of interpreting information (e.g., reflectance) collected from a target object (e.g., vegetation) using technology (e.g., satellites, occupied aircraft, and small unoccupied ...
Application of Rapid-Setting Belitic Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cements in Pretensioned, Prestressed Concrete
(2023-05-13)
In recent years, urgency for adopting sustainable materials has come to the forefront of the cement and concrete industries. Belitic calcium sulfoaluminate (BCSA) cement is an alternative cement which has a production ...
A Framework Identifying Impacts of Ensemble Bias Corrected Downscaled Climate Projections on Regional Groundwater Hydrologic Systems in Western Oklahoma
(2023-12-15)
Groundwater is an important natural resource that is highly sensitive to both precipitation and temperature, factors climate models project will change in the future. General circulation models (GCM) are available to ...
Freshwater Stream Monitoring Process Improvements for Fecal Indicator Impairment Designation
(2023-05)
Recreational water quality standards for freshwater streams and rivers are important to understand the potential human health risks associated with primary body contact recreation. Indicator bacteria, Enterococcus and ...
Use of small unoccupied aerial system multispectral imagery to address optical and non-optical water quality parameters in watershed restoration
(2020-12-18)
Remote sensing is defined as the art, science, and technology of obtaining reliable information about physical objects and the environment through the process of recording, measuring, and interpreting imagery and digital ...
Integrated Hydrologic Validation of Satellite Precipitation over the United States
(2023-12-15)
Increasing precipitation extremes across the globe will naturally lead to not only increased flooding but an increase in the occurrences of flash floods, with assessment and prediction of these events becoming more critical ...
Lateral deformation of bridge embankments supported on soft soils
(2020-12)
Excessive bridge embankment deformation, namely in the lateral direction, continues to damage bridges leading to costly repairs or early replacement. The lateral deformation of bridge embankments is often overlooked in ...
Development of ecological engineering solutions to mine water biogeochemistry and hydrology challenges
(2022-05)
Abandoned underground mines can cause a variety of environmental problems, including mine drainage (MD) that negatively impacts thousands of kilometers of streams worldwide. Underground mines accumulate water after pumping ...
