Evaluation of sight distance as a criterion for prioritizing rail-highway intersections in Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Priority or hazard indices are used by the states to rank their rail-highway intersections according to relative hazard to aid in locating crossings for treatment of conditions and/or improvements in warning devices. The ...
Vehicle emissions and energy consumption impacts of modal shifts
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Growing concern over air quality has prompted the development of strategies to reduce vehicle emissions in these areas. Concern has also been expressed regarding the current dependency of the U,S, on foreign oil. An ...
A mathematical model to predict leaching of hazardous inorganic wastes from solidified/stabilized waste forms
(Texas A&M University, 1993)

Two-dimensional design of post-tensioned concrete flat slab bridges
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
A new procedure is described for design of flat-slab post- tensioned highway bridges. The goal is to provide a rational, sophisticated, and yet relatively facile method of design for this complex class of structures. ...
Synthesis and analysis of streamflow and salt loads

Incident detection using the Standard Normal Deviate model and travel time information from probe vehicles
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
One application of travel time information explored in this thesis is freeway incident detection. It is vital to develop reliable methods for automatically detecting incidents to facilitate the quick response and removal ...
Residential construction on expansive soils
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Residences founded on expansive soils experience billions of dollars each year in damage caused by the heaving and shrinking of the foundation soils. It is thought that stiffening the foundation, while increasing the cost ...
A simulation model for generation of aquifer characteristics and contaminant concentrations
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Remediation of natural systems such as aquifers requires a thorough characterization of its physical and hydraulic properties. Variability in physical and hydraulic properties of aquifers makes design and operation of ...
A critical analysis of sketch-planning tools for evaluating the emissions benefits of transportation control measures
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
The role of transportation control measures (TCMS) in the transportation planning process has increased since the passage of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. Transportation control measure analysis began in the early ...
A study of compaction methods for lunar soil simulants
