Abstract: Watershed hydrology analysis and management process and system with a network of weather stations and artificial drainage systems with artificial and natural reservoir management through locks and pumping stations. It evaluates potential hydrologic risk in each area and analyses the possible consequences of future precipitations using simulations. To make the simulation, it calculates hydrographs for each sub-basin, streams and rivers in the basin.

Abstract: A tester for evaluating pullout load capacity and bond quality of anchor bolts embedded in concrete includes a Schmidt hammer for measuring a rebound number and an ultrasonic pulse velocity tester for measuring the transit time of a pulse transmitted through concrete surrounding an anchor bolt. The rebound number and the transit time are combined and matched against a database record which identifies the pullout load capacity and the bond quality.

The Schmidt hammer is further modified by the incorporation of a digital level for measuring the vertical and horizontal angles of inclination of the plunger with the concrete surface, a guide tube for supporting the plunger, and by using a convex plunger tip for improved registration with anchor bolt head.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a correlation data correlating resource usage with workload signatures is maintained, each workload signature representing a cluster of block signatures, each block signature characterizing the transaction instances initiated in a corresponding block duration. For the transactions received in a current block duration, if a current block signature is not contained in the correlation data and if the current transaction arrival rate (TAR) is greater than an expected TAR, a resource requirement for the current block signature is computed. Actions to manage capacity to handle transaction instances are triggered if the resource requirement is greater than the resource allocation in the current block duration. As an unknown current block signature and a higher TAR may be indicative of a workload surge, triggering suitable actions for such block signatures facilitates such surges to be handled by the software application.
