Proceedings of an Engineering Foundation Conference, held in Snowmass Village, Colorado, August 19-24, 2001. Sponsored by United Engineering Foundation; Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 49 papers discussing the state of the art in urban stormwater management technology. Using a multidisciplinary approach, scientists, researchers, practicing engineers, and administrators detail the linkages between various best management practice (BMP) designs, their performance, and their ability to mitigate the impact of urbanization on receiving waters. Topics include: urban watershed trends; regulatory and institutional perspectives; BMPs and linkages to in-stream integrity; need for and examples of in-stream controls and habitat enhancements; policy issues related to zero and de minims impact development policies; design for sustainable water resources; information and monitoring needs to evaluate impacts mitigating potential of BMPs; and experience and science outside the United States.

It is our pleasure to present these proceedings for “The Aerodynamics of Heavy Vehicles II: Trucks, Buses and Trains” International Conference held in Lake Tahoe, California, August 26-31, 2007 by Engineering Conferences International (ECI). Brought together were the world’s leading scientists and engineers from industry, universities, and research laboratories, including truck and high-speed train manufacturers and operators. All were gathered to discuss computer simulation and experimental techniques to be applied for the design of the more efficient trucks, buses and high-speed trains required in future years. This was the second conference in the series. The focus of the first conference in 2002 was the interplay between computations and experiment in minimizing aerodynamic drag. The present proceedings, from the 2007 conference, address the development and application of advanced aerodynamic simulation and experimental methods for state-of-the-art analysis and design, as well as the development of new ideas and trends holding promise for the coming 10-year time span. Also included, are studies of heavy vehicle aerodynamic tractor and trailer add-on devices, studies of schemes to delay undesirable flow separation, and studies of underhood thermal management.
