The objective of this research project was to investigate bridge approach problems and develop new concepts for design, construction, and maintenance that will reduce this costly problem.

As criticisms of factory farming continue to mount, an increasing number of individuals have changed their existing dietary practices. Perhaps the two most important food movements reacting against industrial farming are (1) vegetarianism, the avoidance of animal flesh; and (2) conscientious omnivorism (CO), the consumption of meat or fish only when it satisfies certain ethical standards. While...

Development of best management practices (BMPs) such as conservation tillage and winter cover crop to mitigate runoff and reduce dissolved chemicals in irrigation runoff is an important objective for controlling surface water pollution attributable to agricultural activities. In this study, the effect of standard tillage (ST), STwith winter cover cropping (STCC), and no-till (NT) management pra...

Highlights Changes to soil properties and precipitation scenarios significantly affect the water balance in agro-hydrology. SPAW model is sensitive simulated runoff infiltration, but it has limitations responding compaction organic matter change. Increasing (1% 5%) did not or infiltration silty sandy loam soil. Low generates lower (%) higher infiltration. Abstract. Agricultural practices can ch...

System Metaphor is one of the key practices of Extreme Programming (XP). Unfortunately, the System Metaphor practice is poorly understood, and is the practice XP teams most commonly choose to ignore. In this paper, we provide a small collection of patterns that teams can use to develop metaphors for their systems, and for evaluating system metaphors. We hope these patterns will encourage Extrem...
