Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on a request for the Engineer Technical Letter ETL 1110-2-221, which addresses wave runup and wind setup on reservoir embankments, published by the US Army Corps of Engineers in 1976. The requester is unable to locate the document in the USACE online library despite it being freely distributed. Participants suggest consulting a reference librarian, as they can assist in borrowing documents from other libraries if needed. The importance of university engineering librarians in aiding research projects is highlighted. Accessing this technical letter is crucial for the research on dam safety.

As part of a research project on Dam Safety I am making some calculations for wave runup an wind setup on a existing embankment dam.
Looking for information, I found a citation of the US Army Corps of Engineers related to my research topic, but I have not been able to find this document on the USACE online library.
I am interested in the Engineer Technical Letter ETL 1110-2-221: Wave Runup and Wind Setup on Reservoir Embankments, USACE 1976.

I was wondering if there is some way to get a copy of this document?
(The document is freely distributed, but, maybe due it is quite old, I haven't been able to find it on internet).

I would very grateful to receive any information related to my request.

Go talk to a reference librarian. They can usually help borrow things from other libraries if your library does not have it.
 
I agree with OldEngr63. Every time I was doing research projects and had issues finding copies of documents, the librarians in the university engineering library were wonderfully helpful.
 
What mathematics software should engineering students use? Is it correct that much of the engineering industry relies on MATLAB, making it the tool many graduates will encounter in professional settings? How does SageMath compare? It is a free package that supports both numerical and symbolic computation and can be installed on various platforms. Could it become more widely used because it is freely available? I am an academic who has taught engineering mathematics, and taught the...
