Hydraulic Design of Culvert Size

Risk-cost Approach to Size Detour Culvert

An interim drainage structure provides a short service during the construction months of the permanent drainage structure. This study presents a risk cost approach by which the design flood for an interim drainage structure can be derived from the capacity of the permanent structure, cost-capacity ratio, cost-damage ratio, and construction months during a year. To accommodate various constructi...

Optimum Design of Hydraulic Excavator

Excavators are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, dipper (or stick), bucket and cab on a rotating platform known as the "house". In this paper the hydraulic shovel excavator is analyzed through the D-H method. The shovel working device with the bucket capacity of 36m3 is optimized. The determination of the objective function, variables and constraints are described in ...
