Multi-parameter bidding method: development of parameters
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
This thesis presents the results of an investigation of multi-parameter bidding for application in the highway construction industry. The major objective of this research is to further develop the multi-parameter bidding ...
Rutting and drainage design methodology for a concrete block pavement
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Concrete block pavements (CBP) have historically been hics. used in low trafficked applications as an alternative to asphalt and concrete pavement because of their aesthetic quality. However, concrete block pavements have ...
Optimizing detector placement for isolated intersections based on minimizing average delay and number of stops
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Detector layout has a significant effect on the performance of an intersection. Operational performance of an intersection is often measured with delay. Delays experienced in rural areas are not significant due to low ...

A systematic determination of legends for destination and distance signs in Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Destination and Distance signs are guide signs which are commonly used along rural highways in Texas to display the names of the destinations to be found along a highway, the direction to travel, and the distance in miles ...

Enhanced solubility of petroleum hydrocarbons using biosurfactants
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
This research investigation included two similarly-designed experiments. In the first, a biological surfactant produced by Rhodococcus strain H13-A and a commonly-used synthetic surfactant, Tween-80 (polyoxyethylene sorbitan ...
Dealing with parameter uncertainty in the calculation of water surface profiles
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Hydrologic and hydraulic variables common to many graphics. water resources engineering problems are known to contain considerable uncertainty. The description of the underlying uncertainty of these parameters is extremely ...
Nutrient dynamics in marsh sediments contaminated by an oil spill following a flood
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
This research involves a study of the natural recovery of a brackish marsh impacted by an oil spill and fire in which the area was naturally enhanced with elevated nutrient levels. Flood waters during October, 1994, ...
