This book was released on 1980 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Site 1 Dam consists of a 1300 feet long homogeneous earth embankment with an auxiliary spillway located at the right end of the embankment in a cut section beyond the abutment of the embankment. The maximum height of the dam is 65 feet. The embankment has a crest width of 20 feet, an upstream slope of 1 vertical on 3 horizontal, and a downstream slope of 1 on 2.5. The auxiliary spillway is a vegetated earth channel, with a bottom width of 340 feet and side slopes of 1 on 3 (left slope) and 1 on 2 (right slope). The principal spillway is a rectangular concrete riser which extends above the upstream slope near the toe of slope. The riser is topped by a triangular trash rack, the sides of which form a drop inlet, which is utilized during high reservoir levels. Under low flow conditions, a rectangular low stage inlet, in the upstream face of the riser, controls the reservoir level. A 30 inch diameter reinforced concrete pipe controls the flow between the riser and the impact basin located at the toe of the dam. An 18 inch diameter pipe, with a manually operated slide gate, the controls of which are located atop the riser, serve as the reservoir drain system. The examination of documents and visual inspection of the Site 1 Dam and appurtenant structures did not reveal conditions which constitute a hazard to human life or property. The discharge capacity of the spillway is adequate for the PMF (Probable Maximum Flood).

Download or read book Attitude Determination of a Spinning and Tumbling Rocket Using Data from Two Orthogonal Magnetometers written by Shu T. Lai and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This technical note reports on the attitude determination of Air Force Rocket No. A31.603 on which an ion emission experiment was performed. Two orthogonal magnetometers, one facing forward along the rocket spin axis and the other facing sideways, provide magnetic field component data. The bias-offset and scaling (signal conversion) factor are not given, but can be determined in a sinusoidal approximation. The algorithm used for generating magnetic pitch angles is discussed and an error analysis is provided. In a local vertical coordinate system, two sets of elevation angles are found for the tumbling rocket, and the set that satisfies an initial condition exactly is the correct one. The deviation of the rocket tumbling plane from the vertical plane can be determined at the times of closest encounter of the magnetic field vector and rocket vector. The deviation at all times can be approximately determined by sinusoidal curve fitting with tumbling frequency. The angles between the rocket vector and moonlight vector during the instants of moonviews at the onboard camera are also calculated. (Author).

Book excerpt: Public and academic debate about ‘porn culture’ is proliferating. Ironically, what is often lost in these debates is a sense of what is specific about pornography. By focusing on pornography’s mainstream – contemporary commercial products for a heterosexual male audience – Everyday Pornography offers the opportunity to reconsider what it is that makes pornography a specific form of industrial practice and genre of representation. Everyday Pornography presents original work from scholars from a range of academic disciplines (Media Studies, Law, Sociology, Psychology, Women’s Studies, Political Science), introducing new methodologies and approaches whilst reflecting on the ongoing value of older approaches. Among the topics explored are: the porn industry’s marketing practices (spam emails, reviews) and online organisation commercial sex in Second Life the pornographic narratives of phone sex and amateur videos the content of best-selling porn videos how the male consumer is addressed by pornography, represented within the mainstream, understood by academics and contained by legislation. This collection places a particular emphasis on anti-pornography feminism, a movement which has been experiencing a revival since the mid-2000s. Drawing on the experiences of activists alongside academics, Everyday Pornography offers an opportunity to explore the intellectual and political challenges of anti-pornography feminism and consider its relevance for contemporary academic debate.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides information and analysis on the physical condition of the dam as of the report date. Information and analysis are based on visual inspection of the dam by the performing organization. The examination of documents and visual inspection of the Finch Hollow Site 2 Dam did not reveal conditions which constitute a hazard to human life or property. The total discharge capacity of the spillways is adequate to impound and safely discharge the floodwaters resulting from the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). Several minor deficiencies were noted on this structure. Among these deficiencies were a small depression on the upstream slope near the riser, ponding of water in the bottom of the auxiliary spillway channel, and a substantial accumulation of debris around the intake of the principal spillway riser. These deficiencies should be corrected within 6 months of the date of notification of the owner. In addition, an emergency action plan for notification of downstream residents should be developed within 6 months. (Author).

This book was released on 1981 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual inspection of this dam and engineering analyses revealed that the poor condition of the dam creates a hazard to human life and property. As a result of these determinations, the dam has been assessed as unsafe, non-emergency. One of the spillway sections has failed completely, creating a large void in the dam. The other spillway channel is in poor condition, having cracks in the concrete and several small voids. The earth fill upstream of the dam completely blocks the failed spillway section and partially blocks the other section. Due to the serious nature of the deficiencies, it is recommended that within 30 days of the notification to the owner that the dam has been assessed as unsafe, repair work on the structural deficiencies should be commenced. These repairs should be completed within 3 months. Within 3 months of the notification of the owner, a detailed hydrologic/hydraulic investigation should be commenced. This investigation should accurately define the site specific characteristics of the watershed and determine appropriate mitigating measures to be taken in response to the seriously inadequate spillway capacity. These measures should be completed within 1 year of the date of notification.
