The objective of this project was to determine the limitations of the distillation equipment available and to design suitable experiments for chemical engineering students with these limitations in mind. This paper, then, serves as an operating manual and reference guide to the use of the glass distillation equipment and the...
Pile caps are structural elements used to transmit loads from structural columns into pile groups. A pile cap is generally constructed of reinforced concrete and contains only minimal flexural reinforcing steel. Using modern design methods, the anchorage of the flexural steel may limit the design capacity of existing pile caps....
Reading through this issue of Oceanography, it will become
apparent that researchers in different disciplines see their
seamounts in quite different ways. The term seamount has been
defined many times (e.g., Menard, 1964; Wessel, 2001; Schmidt and
Schmincke, 2000; Pitcher et al., 2007; International Hydrographic
Organization, 2008; Wessel et al.,...
Heceta Bank is a large reef on the edge of the central Oregon continental shelf that supports a wide variety of commercial fisheries. Using the research submersible Delta, we studied fish abundances on Heceta Bank and the relationship between species composition of fish assemblages and bottom types. Cluster analysis indicated...
The Port of Portland is currently looking for consultants to develop designs for the Troutdale Reynolds Industrial Park (TRIP). CA3D Consultants provides experience from many engineering disciplines and would meet the client’s expectations. Our proposal includes the extension of Swigert Way to Graham Road, construction of office/manufacturing building space, mitigation...
