For flow conduits with mild slope and considerably large vertical curvatures the hydrostatic distribution of the pressure may be used for design proposes. However, for the spillway chutes actual pressure load over the steep slope beds with small vertical curvatures may differ from the hydrostatic pressure values. The differences in pressure load on curved bed chutes are mainly because of the ce...

It is proposed to use a single base platform in the Persian Gulf considering its low depth and more appropriate environmental conditions in comparison to North Sea and Mexico Gulf where this kind of platform is very popular. The pile of platform is responsible for transmission of environmental loads resulted from waves, currents, wind and dead loads to foundation of platform. Using SACS 5.3 sof...

MPLS is the dominant technology in most backbone networks. MPLS-TE is able to handle various paths along different routes to balance the traffic load between two points of the network. In this paper we present a load balancing algorithm (LC) designed to reduce network congestion. The algorithm presented has been tested by simulation and implemented in a MPLS Linux lab test bed. Observed results...

The transport of a non-uniform bed load in river is complicated process and has enormous implications on the sediment flux anomalous riverbed evolution. To investigate characteristics related particle interactions, real-time monitoring system was developed to determine instant rate grain composition load. Doppler Velocimetry used synchronously measure fluctuating velocity high frequency. A tota...
