Beach Dune Subsurface Hydrodynamics and the Formation of Dune Scarps

Creator:: Bond, Hailey G.
Abstract:: The formation of beach scarps is a challenging morphodynamic phenomenon that the coastal community has yet to capture in coastal change models. Understanding scarp formation is crucial to accurately predicting coastal erosion and vulnerability during extreme events, as models without parameters for scarp formation and development severely underpredict total erosion...

Reducing sediment production from forest roads during wet-weather use

Creator:: Toman, Elizabeth Myers
Abstract:: Forest roads produce fine sediment with traffic during wet weather. If the forest road is connected to a stream it can be a source of turbidity and fine sediment that may be detrimental to aquatic organisms especially salmonids. The goal of this work was to investigate turbid runoff during wet-weather...

Radar and Optical Remote Sensing of Submesoscale Frontal Features

Creator:: Simpson, Alexandra J.
Abstract:: The coastal region is home to many types of surface fronts that exist on a submesoscale (1-10 $km$). While in situ observations capture point or transect observations of frontal behavior subsurface, their complex spatial patterns can be well-captured using remote sensing techniques, which provide synoptic views of the ocean surface...

Polar analysis of beam-columns for aircraft

Creator:: Jones, Walter Richard
Abstract:: The analysis of a member carrying a combination of lateral and axial loads (a "beam-column") is a problem of frequent occurrence in aircraft structural design. This thesis presents the derivation and application of the Polar method, both analytical and graphical. The method was first suggested in Germany, several years later...

Steel confined yielding damper for earthquake resistant design

Creator:: Newell, James D.
Abstract:: An experimental study of a passive energy dissipation tension-compression yielding brace or buckling restrained brace has been conducted. The Confined Yielding Damper (CYD) consists of a steel yielding core confined within a tube filled with non-cohesive media. The external tube and confined non-cohesive media provide lateral stability to the core...

The control and fate of enteric bacteria in the environment with particular emphasis on the factors influencing fecal indicator survival in waste storage facilities

Creator:: Crane, Stuart R.
Abstract:: The indiscriminate release of fecal bacteria to the environment can present a public health hazard when pathogenic species gain access to drinking and recreational water sources. The extent of bacterial contamination of surface and ground waters associated with animal production units and waste application areas seems largely dependent on the...

Evaluating dairy waste management systems ̓influence on fecal coliform concentration in runoff

Creator:: Grismer, Mark Edward
Abstract:: This paper examines the environmental factors influencing the die-off and transport of fecal coliform bacteria present in wastes applied to the land surface. These factors are examined specifically for dairy waste management systems and the net effect each system has on runoff water quality. A model is developed that considers...

The evaluation of the field vane shear strength analysis of the Glen Aiken creek embankment failure

Creator:: Clarke, James Dennis
Abstract:: A post-failure investigation of a highway embankment constructed over organic and sensitive subsoils was made with a series of field vane tests. The results indicated that the embankment was quite stable, and, therefore, the reliabilities of both the Φ = 0 slip-circle analysis and the field vane results seemed to...

Characterization of reinforced fill soil, soil-reinforcement interaction, and internal stability of very tall MSE walls

Creator:: Walters, James J.
Abstract:: In many geotechnical design situations involving tight right-of-way constraints, Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls are often the most cost-effective and reliable earth retention technology among available alternatives. However, few well-documented case histories with detailed material testing, instrumentation programs and construction observation of performance are available in the literature. Despite the...
