Long‐Term Effects of Low‐Drop Grade Control Structures on Channel Evolution in the Yazoo River Basin
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Channel incision is a widespread problem, especially in river basins that have an extensive history of channel alterations. Because channel incision causes large ecological and economic consequences, the prevention of continued migration of headcuts, defined as a steep change in stream gradient over a short reach, has been the focus of many ...

Influence of horizontal alignment elements on operating speed of vehicles on two-lane highways
Frontiers in Future TransportationEarlier studies acknowledged that the design speed does not principally assure consistency in the design of highway geometric elements. Methodologies for estimating operating speeds are limited to specific or local traffic conditions and design standards,
