Ultrasonic biaxial stress measurement for evaluating the adequacy of gusset plates
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
The collapse of the I-35W bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on August 1, 2007, resulted in the deaths of 13 people. In an investigation conducted by the National Transportation Safety Board, the cause of the collapse was ...
A Particle-Based Multi-Scale Simulation Procedure within the Material Point Method Framework
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Process improvements in biological nutrient removal systems for better wastewater treatment performance
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Dry weight and cell density of individual algal and cyanobacterial cells for algae research and development
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Phototrophs have received more and more attention due to their nutrient removal, biomass production as well as the potential for biofuel feedstock. This research determined the dry weight of algal and cyanobacterial cells ...
Counteracting traffic congestion using intelligent driver feedback
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Traffic congestion is a daily occurrence in urban highway networks worldwide. It is not possible, however, for society to build its way out of congestion; rather, smarter roads and vehicles are needed. While the development ...
Hydrogen production from the dissolution of nano zero valent iron (NZVI) and its effect on anaerobic digestion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.]
Comparison of nondestructive testing technologies used for inspection of welded joints
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The purpose of this research is to report on the comparison between different nondestructive test (NDT) methods applied for the detection of defects ...
Fabrication and modification of nanocomposite membranes for enhanced water purification
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Emissions of greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane from duckweed systems for stormwater treatment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
This study determined the greenhouse gas emission from lab-scale duckweed treatment systems that were used for stormwater treatment. By using the static chamber technique, the fluxes of CO2 emission from the duplicate ...
Large scale modeling of precipitation induced landslides
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Engineering-based analysis of pre-development hydrology stormwater policy for transportation applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Ongoing concern over water quality impacts from development has prompted consideration of a return to pre-development hydrology as a possible solution ...
The effects of alkalinity, hardness, and pH on the formation potential of disinfection by-products
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Chlorine is the most common disinfectant used; its use has dramatically decreased a number of waterborne diseases. However, the use of disinfectants creates another potential problem in the creation of disinfection by-products ...
LRFD for settlement analyses of shallow foundations and embankments-developed resistance factors for consolidation settlement analyses
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Determining the viability and effectiveness of a roughing biofilter for use in drinking water treatment plants
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Shearing rate effects on drained shear strength of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) byproduct
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Adobe materials for structural walls
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.]
Verifying risk-based inspection intervals based on historical records and statistical analysis of bridge files
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
A study on the benefits of including near-field effects in active-source surface wave data collection and interpretation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Geotechnical analyses for earthquake engineering and other applications are often predicated on the accurate determination of shear wave velocity (VS) profiles. Surface wave methods (SWM) are a noninvasive approach to ...
Evaluation of bioelectrochemical systems for wastewater treatment and sludge digestion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Much attention has been drawn by bioelectrochemical systems (BES) in the past years for wastewater treatment, due to its potential for enhanced wastewater ...
