A Modified Logarithmic Probability Graph for the Interpretation of Mechanical Analyses of Sediments
نویسنده
چکیده
Mechanical analyses of sediments are studied by comparison with other analyses. Both graphical and numerical methods of comparison are in use, each kind having its limitations. Two terms of a Gram-Charlier series, expressed in Krumbein's phi units, represent the data in many types of analyses, thus enabling them to be reduced to three numerical values or parameters. Graphical methods are given for recognizing such analyses, for obtaining the parameters, and for evaluating the extent to which they summarize the analytical information. A general procedure is outlined for systematic interpretation of mechanical analyses. The advantages of this method of interpretation are shown by considering in detail the information that can be deduced from the graphical study of a sieve analysis of a dune sand.

A study of the influential factors affecting the slopes of deposited sediments behind the porous check dams and model development for prediction
Abstract Spacing between check dams depends on the stream bed slope, effective height of check dams and slope of deposited sediments behind the check dams. The slope of deposited sediments is more important than the other two factors because of complications in the way of its occurrence and its measurement after several years of dam construction. This research presents the effective factors a...
متن کاملA note on connectivity and lambda-modified Wiener index
In theoretical chemistry, -modified Wiener index is a graph invariant topological index to analyze the chemical properties of molecular structure. In this note, we determine the minimum -modified Wiener index of graph with fixed connectivity or edge-connectivity. Our results also present the sufficient and necessary condition for reaching the lower bound.

Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...

متن کاملStatic and Free Vibration Analyses of Functionally Graded Nano-composite Plates Reinforced by Wavy Carbon Nanotubes Resting on a Pasternak Elastic Foundation
In this study, static and free vibration analyses of functionally graded (FG) nanocomposite plates, reinforced by wavy single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) resting on a Pasternak elastic foundation, were investigated based on a mesh-free method and modified first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). Three linear types of FG nanocomposite plate distributions and a uniform distribution of wa...
