Nutrients in runoff from spray irrigation of swine wastes

Creator:: Taylor, Dennis William
Abstract:: Major emphasis of this research study involved the evaluation of nutrient transport by overland flow. Samples gathered at various distances relative to a swine-waste spray irrigation system were used for the nutrient evaluation. As a result of this study, the following conclusions are made: 1. It is improbable that the...

In-Plane Shear Performance of Cross-laminated Timber and Cross-laminated Timber Concrete Composite Diaphragm Connection Systems

Creator:: Taylor, Brad
Abstract:: Cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels have been gaining popularity as diaphragm elements in mid- to high-rise construction projects. In addition, CLT-concrete composite (CCC) diaphragms have been implemented to expand the use of CLT diaphragms. To understand the behavior of CLT and CCC diaphragms, this research effort sought to characterize the cyclic,...

Factors controlling halogenated and nonhalogenated alkene growth substrate range of vinyl chloride-utilizing bacteria

Creator:: Taylor, Anne Elizabeth
Abstract:: This thesis explores the factors limiting the alkene substrate range of the vinyl chloride (VC)-utilizing bacteria, and describes a method for measuring VC transformation in situ. Vinyl fluoride (VF) was evaluated as a surrogate for monitoring aerobic VC-transformation utilizing three isolates, Mycobacterium EE13a, Mycobacterium JS60 and Nocardioides JS614. JS614 grew...

On Undular Bores and Solitary Waves in Variable Depth

Creator:: Knowles, Jeffrey N.
Abstract:: Numerical results are presented using a higher-order pseudo-spectral method in order to solve the Zakharov-Craig-Sulem formulation of the Euler model. We study the effects of variable bathymetry on weakly-dispersive, weakly-nonlinear, shallow water waves. Improved predictions on wave amplitude and shoaling behavior are developed by analytical means in the context of...

The effects of nail bending-yield stress and biological deterioration on the cyclic performance of shearwalls

Creator:: Anderson, Erin N.
Abstract:: Key parts of the lateral force resisting system in wood-frame buildings are the shearwafls and the connections. The connections in wooden buildings are the primary source of ductility and energy dissipation; these are essential properties when buildings are exposed to lateral forces, such as wind and earthquakes. Shearwall design is...

Design and fatigue behavior of near-surface mounted CFRP bars for shear strengthening of RC bridge girders

Creator:: Johnson, Brandon Ang
Abstract:: Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials are emerging as an effective means of strengthening and rehabilitating bridges. Near surface mounting (NSM) is a newer technique for application of CFRP for retrofitting of bridge members that provides advantages over conventional strengthening techniques. The technique is still new and uncertainties remain regarding...

Pressure distribution around a circular cylinder resting on a flat boundary in an oscillating fluid

Creator:: Johnson, Ronald Ernest
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to provide information needed in the design of ocean outfalls. A review of past investigations concerning forces on submerged objects is presented. Objects independent of any boundary and cylinders in boundary contact are considered. A solution for pressure distribution about a circular cylinder resting on a...

Performance-Based Design Methodology for Using Emergent Vegetation to Mitigate Wave Overtopping

Creator:: Ostrow, Kayla
Abstract:: To facilitate the design of Natural and Nature-Based Features (NNBF) for flood protection, this thesis expands an existing engineering design methodology to NNBF systems. The existing approach is a Level III reliability method for the performance-based design of traditional coastal engineering systems. The expanded methodology incorporates uncertainties inherent to both...

A model for simulating river and reservoir temperatures with applications for anadromous fish management

Creator:: Currie, James William
Abstract:: A problem confronting the Corps of Engineers and other water resources planners in the Pacific Northwest is the prediction of anadromous fish enhancement benefits that would result from a proposed high dam project. These benefits are expected from augmenting natural streamflows with relatively cold reservoir withdrawals. The resulting increased streamflows...
