  • Consolidation characteristics of sand-clay mixtures

    Creator:
    Anderson, Donald G. (Donald Gordon)
    Abstract:
    Combinations of cohesive and cohesionless soils are often encountered when evaluating the engineering properties of soils. The stress-volume characteristics of the mixed soil are found to vary according to the proportion of each component. If the cohesive soil composes more than a certain fraction of the material, the magnitude of...

  • The effect of pulverization on a lime stabilized clay soil

    Creator:
    Dito, Edward Leonard
    Abstract:
    The objectives of this investigation were to determine the effect of pulverization on the strength, durability and swell characteristics of a lime stabilized clay soil. Samples were prepared with three different gradations which represented the pulverization of the soil. Maximum clay lump sizes of 3/4", 1/2" and passing #4 sieve...

  • 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...

  • Use of benthic sediments as indicators of marina flushing

    Creator:
    Noble, Scott Morgan
    Abstract:
    This report presents the findings of a sediment analysis program formulated to determine the flushing potential of various shaped small boat marina basins. Chemical tests regarding volatile solids, Kjeldahl nitrogen, grease and oil, and sulfides were performed with the results compared to established sediment quality criteria. These results were used...

  • Effects of pressure and deposit thickness on the stabilization rate of benthic marine sludge deposits

    Creator:
    Muellenhoff, W. P.
    Abstract:
    The biochemical degradation of domestic sludge deposits exposed to benthic marine conditions was investigated using a laboratory Deep Sea Simulator. The rate and extent of deposit stabilization were determined for select hydrostatic pressures and hydrogen acceptor conditions by monitoring depletion of particulate organic carbon in 2.0 and 3.0 centimeter deposits....

  • Input/output energy analysis of regional water pollution control

    Creator:
    Heggen, Richard J.
    Abstract:
    Two strategic approaches to water quality control in Oregon's Willamette River are presently being utilized: point source treatment and flow augmentation. Dry weather releases from reservoirs are for authorized purposes other than water quality. Reservoirs can participate in pollution control by summer flow augmentation where authorized water resource objectives (flood...

  • Development of a priority rating system for highway safety improvements

    Creator:
    Iranitalab, Farhad
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents the procedure adopted to develop the priority rating system for highway safety improvements. Safety hazards are classified into four categories: (1) Railroad crossings, (2) Intersections, (3) Geometric-Related Hazards, and (4) Roadside Hazards. For each category of hazards, relationships are developed to obtain a hazard index and expected...
