Simulation of Levee Erosion
In this report, I talk about my work on fluid simulation and erosion simulation. First some background knowledge about both fluid and hydraulic erosion simulation is discussed and then some technical details about a levee erosion simulator is presented. Some implementation results of the system are also presented and discussed. Finally, I will also discuss the difficulties I faced when doing th...
متن کاملLevee Evaluation Using Masw: Preliminary Findings from the Citrus Lakefront Levee, New Orleans, Louisiana
The utility of the multi-channel analysis of surface waves (MASW) seismic method for noninvasive assessment of earthen levees was evaluated for a section of the Citrus Lakefront Levee, New Orleans, Louisiana. This test was conducted after the New Orleans’ area levee system had been stressed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The MASW data were acquired in a seismically noisy, urban environment using...
متن کاملZoar Levee Interim Risk Management
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers elevated Zoar Levee and Diversion Dam to a Dam Safety Action Class I (urgent and compelling) ranking due to seepage concerns. An accelerated program is in progress to address project deficiencies which include seepage through the levee’s glacial outwash foundation, through a fractured rock knoll beneath the levee, and through the dam’s fractured rock abutments a...
متن کاملPalm breach
form ended with the last ice age in Europe, it persisted until very recently in Australia, although examples of twentieth century work are rare and may have been influenced by outsiders. Incredibly, this latest find comprises a continuous historical record from 15,000 years ago to 50 years ago. Thus it is that, alongside ancient depictions of classic rock art images such as human hand outlines,...
متن کاملOn the Importance of Default Breach Remedies
Theory predicts that default breach remedies are immaterial whenever contracting costs are negligible. Some experimental studies, however, suggest that in practice default rules do matter, as they may a¤ect parties' preferences over contract terms. This paper presents results from an experiment designed to address the importance of default breach remedies for actual contract outcomes. We …nd th...
