  • Durability and Performance of High Early Strength Concrete for Structural Bridge Deck Overlays

    Creator:
    Smith, Jeremy A.
    Abstract:
    High early strength concrete (HESC) allows for faster construction with less impact on traffic, thus reducing the indirect costs associated with a project. There are multiple methods for achieving early strength, such as alternative cements like calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) or chemically accelerated portland cements. The standard criteria for an HESC...

  • Application of geostatistics to regional evapotranspiration

    Creator:
    Amegee, Kodjo Y.
    Abstract:
    Regionalized variable analysis has been used to study a number of meteorological and hydrological variables including precipitation (Delhomme and Delfinier, 1973), streamfiow (Villeneuve et al., 1979) and hydraulics of groundwater aquifers (Gambolati and Volpi, 1979). In the research work reported in this thesis, an attempt was made to characterize the...

  • Evaluation of Oregon Tack Coat Performance to Reduce Tracking and Increase Interlayer Shear Strength of Asphalt Pavements

    Creator:
    Covey, David J.
    Abstract:
    CSS-1H is the most commonly used slow-setting emulsion grade in Oregon. “New” engineered emulsions were recently developed in Oregon to reduce tracking, the pick-up of tack coats by construction vehicle tires during construction activities, and increase interlayer shear strength (ISS), the amount of adhesive bond present between layers of asphalt...

  • Fractal solutions to the long wave equations

    Creator:
    Ajiwibowo, Harman
    Abstract:
    The fractal dimension of measured ocean wave profiles is found to be in the range of 1.5-1.8. This non-integer dimension indicates the fractal nature of the waves. Standard formulations to analyze waves are based on a differential approach. Since fractals are non-differentiable, this formulation fails for waves with fractal characteristics....

  • Oregon coastal lake study : phosphorus loading and water quality implications

    Creator:
    Blair, Michael Stuart
    Abstract:
    A study of phosphorus loading and water quality implications was conducted for the Oregon coastal lakes. The study was based on existing data for lake total phosphorus concentrations and for watershed land uses. A phosphorus mass-balance model was developed to predict lake total phosphorus concentrations from estimated phosphorus loading from...

  • Networked Multi-agent Modeling of Connected Vehicles in Mixed Traffic Environment: A Decentralized Consensus Approach

    Creator:
    Wahid, Merih
    Abstract:
    Transportation systems are facing safety and operational challenges with a cost of billions of dollars annually in lost production time and wasted fuel. Infrastructure expansion, previously held as a panacea to most transportation challenges has lost its appeal due to financial, land-use and environmental constraints. Interest is surging in intelligent...
