Air Entrainment and Acoustic Wave Celerities Following a Rapidly Moving Pipe Filling Bore 

Patrick, Andrew (2015-04-30)
Water mains stormwater sewers and tunnels may undergo processes of rapid filling, in which flow regimes transit from open channel into pressurized flows. In the process, air bubbles may be entrained, which may influence ...

Measuring and modeling the impact of roadway runoff on a headwater tributary of the Cahaba River 

Butler, Catherine (2015-07-24)
Stormwater runoff from highways has been a relevant focus of study both in terms of its characterization during construction phases as well as during the operational years. Highways have been thought to have adverse impacts ...

A Numerical Investigation on High-Reynolds-Number Gravity Currents in Pressurized and Free-Surface Systems using Shallow Water Equation and Integral Model Approaches 

Hatcher, Thomas, Jr. (2014-12-09)
Multiphase flows in the form of gravity currents are prevalent in various natural systems, as well as in some open channels and closed conduits. Thus, accurate flow simulation and efficient modeling tools are important in ...

Understanding of Road-Bioretention Strip Design and Improvement from Hydraulic Perspective 

Li, Xiaoning (2019-06-17)
This study is to understand and quantify the hydraulic and hydrological performance of road bioretention facilities as well as the basic problems in urban drainage and road bioretention design. An open-source two-dimensional ...
