Development Of An Excel Model To Evaluate The Stability Of Slopes, Bradley Davis
Development Of An Excel Model To Evaluate The Stability Of Slopes, Bradley Davis
All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023
This objective of this study is to determine a method or tool for taking given slope stability parameters and quickly and effectively determining the factor of safety against sliding of fully softened slopes. This study evaluates the effects of soil and geometric parameters of common slopes, and models these properties in a hypothetical model. The methodology is based on a parametric analysis using the Spencer’s Method of Slices limit equilibrium analysis used in the computer program Slide2. A parametric analysis is performed to determine which soil and/or geometric properties have a high influence on slope stability. The parametric analysis is …

Civil Engineering Design Of Cornhusker Council's Outdoor Education Center, Kelly Weiler
Civil Engineering Design Of Cornhusker Council's Outdoor Education Center, Kelly Weiler
Honors Theses
A team of geotechnical, structural, hydraulic, environmental, and transportation experts collaborated to provide engineering solutions to the Cornhusker Council in an effort to solve the current problems facing their Outdoor Education Center. This results of this project provided the structural design of three bridges on the property, transportation plans for two parking lots and roadway design, geotechnical recommendations for soil testing and erosion prevention, and an environmental and hydraulic analysis of the property. A major challenge in the design of this project is the consideration of the dangers and regulations that accompany the floodway and floodplain regions on site. Various …
Ncma Groundwater Model Using Usgs Modflow-2005/Pest, Brian Matthew Wallace
Ncma Groundwater Model Using Usgs Modflow-2005/Pest, Brian Matthew Wallace
Master's Theses
A numerical model for the NCMA aquifer complex is presented. The objective of the study is to develop a numerical groundwater model for the NCMA aquifer system to enhance the understanding of subsurface groundwater flow. Infiltration, streamflow, pumping, and return flows are implemented to characterize the aquifer complex over time. The numerical model is calibrated to municipal and monitoring well data, average monthly water balances, and hydraulic contours. Transient aquifer inflows and outflows are assessed in the results of the study and are compared to balance terms from previous studies. The 2007 Todd Engineers Study subsurface inflows and outflows generate …
