 | The Army has a requirement to develop methods of strengthening soil to support rapid runway and roadway construction. A study was undertaken on the use of DC current applied to soil to form cementing phases in the soil. Preliminary work was on the use of zinc. aluminum. and iron in a variety of granular materials. Metal ions primarily form soft metal hydroxide gels that produce no immediate soil strengthening. Passing ... |

|
| The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), has recently completed an experimental development and validation effort focused on the performance of reinforced concrete bunkers for use in Iraq and Afghanistan. The experimental work considered two similar structures: a field-improvised design observed to be in use in-theatre, and one developed by ERDC to meet specific warfighter requirements. Three objectives directed the experimental program, and ... |

|
| The extended hyperbolic model for interfaces developed by Gomez, Filz, and Ebeling (Technical Report ITL-99-1; Report 2) can model the response of interfaces subjected to complex stress paths that may include simultaneous changes in shear and normal stresses and unloading-reloading. These types of loading can occur at soil-structure interfaces of multi-anchored systems used in navigation projects. Therefore, it is possible that finite element analyses of multi-anchored systems can be performed ... |

|
| This is the first in a series of technical notes concerning sensitive turtle groups. It provides an overview of environmentally sensitive turtle species and habitats as reported by resource managers at U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) reservoir projects. Current Federal and state legal protection status for U.S. turtle species are summarized and US ACE Districts and reservoir projects potentially impacted by turtle conservation issues are identified. For each turtle ... |

|
| The interagency coordination process through which environmental windows are determined for individual dredging projects is frequently handicapped by a paucity of technical knowledge pertaining to important attributes of the fishery resource(s) of concern and potential conflicts resulting from the dredging event. Thus, in many cases, environmental windows are chosen in an unavoidably subjective manner. Few tools exist to facilitate or inject objectivity into the ... |
