Research topic for Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering

AI Thread Summary
Suggestions for a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering research topic include exploring foundations in aqueous environments, focusing on materials and construction methods in both salt and fresh water. Another angle is examining transportation systems in areas with numerous water crossings, such as Holland or Venice, and the challenges of establishing survey control in unstable ground. These topics provide a variety of perspectives within surveying, geotechnical engineering, and construction materials. The urgency for a title defense on Thursday adds to the importance of selecting a relevant and engaging topic. Engaging with these ideas could lead to a successful research project.

I need suggestions of any research topics related to civil engineering for a bachelor level. My current fields of interest include Surveying/transportation, geotechnical engineering and construction materials and testing. Our title defense will take place on Thursday so I'm a bit on a hurry mode. My previous titles were hypothetically rejected prior to mediocrity and some inconsistency issues. Anyone? Thanks.

How about something about foundations in aqueous environments?

That would offer many different angles to look at, from materials in salt and fresh water, construction methods in water, foundation geotechnics.

Alternatively you could examine the transport angle; Transport in an environment requiring many water (river + canal) crossings as in Holland or Venice and establishing survey control when there is no stable ground to fix control point to.

go well on Thursday.
 

Thread 'Query on Isentropic relationships (such as PV^gamma = constant)'

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...

Thread 'Dry sump pump issue'

I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
