Past waste-disposal activities at Naval Air Station Whiting Field (NASWF) have led to elevated concentrations of contaminants in the underlying sand and gravel aquifer. Contaminants include two of the most commonly detected chemicals in groundwater in ma...

This paper presents a hydrological assessment of the 113,981 km2 Meta River basin in Colombia using 13 global climate models to predict water yield for 2050 under two CMIP6 scenarios, SSP 4.5 and SSP 8.5. Despite mixed performance across subbasins, the m...

To address the unstable motion of a tension leg platform (TLP) for floating wind turbines in various sea conditions, an improved method of incorporating a tuned liquid multi-column damper (TLMCD) into the TLP foundation is proposed. In order to evaluate ...

More frequent high-intensity, short-duration rainfall events increase the risk of flash floods on steeply sloped watersheds. Where measured data are unavailable, numerical models emerge as valuable tools for predicting flash floods. Recent applications o...

Saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is a hydrologic flux parameter commonly used to determine water movement through the saturated soil zone. Understanding the influences of land-use-specific Ksat on the model estimation error of water balance compon...

Trash racks installed at hydropower plants cause head losses that reduce energy output. Previous research has thoroughly investigated head losses through both experimental and field studies. However, only a limited number of numerical studies have been p...

Engine mounts serve three primary purposes: (1) to support the weight of the engine, (2) to lessen the transmitted engine disturbance forces to the vehicle structure/chassis or airplane fuselage, and (3) to limit the engine motion brought on by shock exc...
