Effect Of Bedload Sediment Natural Composition On Geometric And Dinamic Characteristics Of Channel Forms, N. M. Ikramov, T. Sh Majidov, A. G. Khodzinskaya Dec 2018

Effect Of Bedload Sediment Natural Composition On Geometric And Dinamic Characteristics Of Channel Forms, N. M. Ikramov, T. Sh Majidov, A. G. Khodzinskaya

Irrigation and Melioration

The article brings up data on sediment diversity at watercourse bed and on their movement in the form of ridges. The ridge form movement of sediment leads to the reduction of reservoir volume and canal cross section area, which has an effect on their carrying capacity, filling of pump station forechambers and hydroelectric station pressure basins with sediment. The presence of sediment in flow leads to abrasive deterioration of pumps, water motors and pressure pipes and to other negative consequences. Research work tasks on the study of these effects have been examined with the purpose of preventing such negative consequences. …

Study Of Dynamic Behavior Of Earth Dams Considering The Dam Base, M. M. Mirsaidov, E. S. Toshmatov, S. M. Takhirov Dec 2018

Study Of Dynamic Behavior Of Earth Dams Considering The Dam Base, M. M. Mirsaidov, E. S. Toshmatov, S. M. Takhirov

Irrigation and Melioration

The methods have been developed for solving various dynamic problems for inhomogeneous viscoelastic "structure-base" systems taking into account wave entrainment of energy, i.e. non-reflecting conditions at the boundary of the finite site of the base. The dynamic behavior and the stress-strain state of the inhomogeneous “viscoelastic dam-elastic base” system using wave entrainment of energy through the boundaries of the finite site of the base under short-term intense effect in the base are investigated.

Method For Determining Clay Minerals Content In Soil, A Akhatov, G. A. Akhmetkanova Dec 2018

Method For Determining Clay Minerals Content In Soil, A Akhatov, G. A. Akhmetkanova

Irrigation and Melioration

The paper describes a new method for determining clay minerals (hydromica) content in soils. In 100% of total mineral mass, the content of clay minerals estimated by the calculated method is 60.2%; chlorite -11.4%; kaolinite - 7%; montmorillonite - 21.4%. The method described in the paper makes it possible to determine the interzone and intertype distribution of clay minerals in soils, the humus content in soil, etc. It is proposed to determine the clay mineral content in the silty fraction using Fe2O3, K2O, and other silicate oxides. As an example of calculation, brown soils of the mid-mountain belt of the …

Results Of Numerical Research Of Discharge Capacity Of A Spillway With A Wide Threshold, D R. Bazarov, M. S. Berdiyev, Z. V. Urazmukhamedova, B. M. Norkulov, U. U. Kurbanova, A. S. Bestuzheva

Irrigation and Melioration

The problem of dramatically changing river flow in the reaches of hydro-technical structures is considered in the paper. The discharge capacity of these structures is determined by the well-known formula of a spillway with a wide threshold based on the Saint-Venant system of equations. It was stated that the Froude number in an undisturbed flow increases at the narrowing of the channel and decreases with its widening, and in a turbulent flow the Froude number decreases with the narrowing of the channel, and increases with its widening. Proceeding from this, the transition of a flow from a calm regime to …

Pervasive Iron Limitation At Subsurface Chlorophyll Maxima Of The California Current, Shane L. Hogle, Christopher L. Dupont, Brian M. Hopkinson, Andrew L. King, Kristen N. Buck, Kelly L. Roe, Rhona K. Stuart, Andrew E. Allen, Elizabeth L. Mann, Zackary I. Johnson, Katherine A. Barbeau

Marine Science Faculty Publications

Subsurface chlorophyll maximum layers (SCMLs) are nearly ubiquitous in stratified water columns and exist at horizontal scales ranging from the submesoscale to the extent of oligotrophic gyres. These layers of heightened chlorophyll and/or phytoplankton concentrations are generally thought to be a consequence of a balance between light energy from above and a limiting nutrient flux from below, typically nitrate (NO3). Here we present multiple lines of evidence demonstrating that iron (Fe) limits or with light colimits phytoplankton communities in SCMLs along a primary productivity gradient from coastal to oligotrophic offshore waters in the southern California Current ecosystem. SCML …

Advertising In A World Full Of Human Trafficking: How Advertising And Human Trafficking Coincide, April M. Cherry Dec 2018

Advertising In A World Full Of Human Trafficking: How Advertising And Human Trafficking Coincide, April M. Cherry

Honors Theses

As a young woman, I have been groomed to worry about the consequences of what I wear, what I say, and how I interact with men. My grandma is constantly sending me emails with new information on sexual assault or kidnapping cases around the area in which I live. I see articles about human trafficking schemes on my news feed almost weekly. As a young woman, I am conditioned to be on guard at all times because the dangers of being abducted or attacked, specifically trafficked, are portrayed to be more likely than they truly are. Why is this? Why …

Practice And Lived Experience Of Menstrual Exiles (Chhaupadi) Among Adolescent Girls In Far Western Nepal. December 2018, Prabisha Amatya, Saruna Ghimire, Karen E. Callahan, Binaya Kumar Baral, Krishna C. Poudel Dec 2018

Practice And Lived Experience Of Menstrual Exiles (Chhaupadi) Among Adolescent Girls In Far Western Nepal. December 2018, Prabisha Amatya, Saruna Ghimire, Karen E. Callahan, Binaya Kumar Baral, Krishna C. Poudel

School of Public Health Faculty Research

Background: Menstrual exile, also known as Chhaupadi, is a tradition of “untouchability” in far-western Nepal. Forbidden from touching other people and objects, women and girls are required to live away from the community, typically in a livestock shed, during menstruation. We assessed the lived experiences of Chhaupadi among Nepalese adolescent girls in the far-western Achham district of Nepal, observed the safety and sanitation of their living spaces during Chhaupadi, and assessed the perceptions of local adult stakeholders towards the practice of Chhaupadi. Methods: We collected data from 107 adolescent girls using a self-administered survey in two local schools in Achham. …

Treated Versus Untreated Aggregate Bases For Flexible Pavements: A Nationwide Comparitive Study, Hemant Gc, Mena I. Souliman Dec 2018

Treated Versus Untreated Aggregate Bases For Flexible Pavements: A Nationwide Comparitive Study, Hemant Gc, Mena I. Souliman

Civil Engineering Theses

Aggregates are a major part of highway construction and its quality as well as strength affects the overall performance of the pavement structure. The base material near the construction site does not always meet the strength requirement needed for the pavement construction and the hauling of quality aggregate increases the construction costs. For better use of local available materials, stabilizing agents such as lime and asphalt cement have been utilized to increase the strength of crushed aggregate bases. Performance of pavement structures is heavily influenced by the thickness of the structure as well as material properties of each layer. The …
