Biography

With a professional career spanning 55 years, Daryl B. Simons is an internationally recognized expert in the fields of hydraulics, hydrology, geomorphology, river mechanics, sediment transport and hydraulic modeling. His innovative teaching and research while professor of civil engineering at Colorado State University (CSU) and his supervision of hundreds of water-related projects around the world have contributed to this international reputation.

Daryl Baldwin Simons was born February 12, 1918, in Payson, Utah. He remained in Utah for the majority of his education, earning both a B.S. (1947) and an M.S. (1948) in civil engineering from Utah State University. Service in the U. S. Army interrupted his undergraduate education from April 1943 to September 1946 and included time as a unit commander in the Corps of Engineers.

Following his education in Utah, Simons became a professor of civil engineering at the University of Wyoming. During his time there, he earned a Ph.D. (1957) in civil and irrigation engineering from CSU. Upon completion, he took a position as project chief with the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) in Fort Collins. The position involved conducting research in fluvial hydraulics with an emphasis on erosion and sedimentation, river mechanics, and resistance to flow in alluvial channels.

Simons left the USGS in 1963 when hired as a professor of civil engineering at CSU, where he taught classes on erosion and sedimentation, river mechanics and hydraulic structures. He was also the head of the River Mechanics and Hydraulics Program and was in charge of all research in civil engineering. In 1965, his position changed to associate dean of engineering research, director of the Engineering Research Center (ERC) and associate director of the Experiment Station as well as professor of civil engineering. Simons retained all four positions until 1983 when he began a transitional retirement, continuing to conduct research at CSU. The period of Simons' leadership was marked by great growth and development for CSU's engineering college, largely due to Simons:

"In his dual capacity as associate dean and head of ERC, Simons organized the infrastructure of staff, accounting, purchasing, and maintenance facilities necessary to support a full-scale research operation. He also demonstrated an extraordinary ability to attract projects and carried a full load of graduate advisees during the next twenty years." (Ann Hilfinger, One Hundred Years of Engineering at Colorado State University, p. 52)

Simons began doing independent consulting following the completion of his Ph.D. and has since been involved in consulting projects for the United Nations, the World Bank, other international groups and many federal and state government agencies. His first project involved designing the Link Canals to redistribute water between India and Pakistan. Other locations for his work have included Egypt, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, many South American countries including Venezuela, Peru, Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Ecuador as well as much of the United States, Canada and Mexico. The projects have involved "hydrology, hydraulics, flood control, river geomorphology, sediment transport, mathematical modeling, expert systems, water quality, environmental analysis, navigation, routing pollutants, litigation, etc." ( Who's Who in Engineering, 1995, p. 687).

In 1979, Simons began his first consulting firm, Simons and Li Engineering, with Ruh-Ming Li. They changed the name in 1980 to Simons, Li and Associates, bringing in other people to work with them. By the time Simons left in October 1984, the firm employed approximately one hundred people. Much of the firm's work related to river mechanics, erosion and sedimentation, and mathematical modeling of alluvial systems. The firm did extensive work for the Corps of Engineers, mostly focusing on the Mississippi River, the Ohio River, the Missouri River and the Colorado River. This included development of a short course on geomorphology and river mechanics, a two-dimensional mathematical model for the upper Mississippi River, and several short films illustrating the dynamics of the river.

Simons formed a new firm in October 1984, Simons and Associates, Inc., and worked there as principal engineer through December 1997. Since January 1998, he has been the principal engineer at another new firm, D.B. Simons and Associates, Inc.

Simons has written over 445 papers, is the co-author of five textbooks and has contributed chapters to other books. He is a registered Professional Engineer in Colorado, Wyoming, Arizona, New Mexico and Nebraska. His society affiliations include the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID), the International Association for Hydraulic Research (IAHR) and the American Geophysical Union (AGU). Simons also served on many committees for these groups. He is the recipient of the ASCE 1960 J.C. Stevens Award, the ASCE 1964 Croes Award, the ASCE 1991 Hunter Rouse Award and co-recipient of the ASCE 1979 Karl Emil Hilgard Hydraulic Prize. In 1973 he was named Outstanding Professional Engineer for Colorado.

Daryl Simons married Irene May Beck (1921-1984) in 1944 and they had three sons: Robert K., Paul R., and Stephen R. He married Mary Jo Ricker Bell in 1985. Daryl and Mary Jo presently live in Fort Collins, where Daryl is principal engineer at D.B. Simons and Associates. A detailed resume and a complete bibliography for Simons can be found in the collection file.

Scope and Contents

The Papers of Daryl B. Simons consists of documents dated 1901 to 1991, with the bulk falling from 1950 to 1990. The materials were either created or collected by Simons in relation to his research and work. Materials relate to many of the organizations Simons worked for and are grouped in that way. Organizations include the United States Geological Survey; Colorado State University; Simons, Li and Associates; and Simons and Associates. A small representation of Simons' copious published articles and monographs is also in the collection and covers subjects of hydraulics, sediment transport, alluvial channels and related topics. There are also files related to some of Simons' research projects, from proposals to raw data to drafts and the final reports. Those best documented concern the Mississippi River and Pakistan/Bangladesh. Predominant material types include reports, articles, books, proposals, correspondence, data, notes, clippings, photographs, slides, negatives, an audiotape, and a film reel.

Papers of Daryl B. Simons, Water Resources Archive, Colorado State University.

Acquisition

The Papers of Daryl B. Simons was acquired by the Water Resources Archive in June 2002, after having been stored at the Engineering Research Center on CSU's Foothills Campus for a number of years. In May and June 2003, as this guide was being finished, major additions to the collection were received from Daryl and Mary Jo Simons. That material will be processed at a later date; much of it has a close relation to what is listed here.

Appraisal

The main appraisal criterion was that materials had to relate directly to Daryl Simons or his work in order to be retained. Books, federal government publications, journal issues, and CSU publications not of a unique or rare nature were not retained. These items went through the normal library selection process to be added to the main stacks. Duplicates of reports and reprints were not retained past a second copy, and unidentified partial drafts were discarded. The page proofs for Simons' textbook Sediment Transport Technology were not retained as they seemed identical to the printed copy. Also, the printing negatives and originals for the Bhowmik dissertation and Wend thesis were discarded.

Processing

The processing of the collection was completed in June 2003. As the materials were being rearranged, they were inserted in acid free folders as needed. The majority of metal fasteners were removed and replaced with plastic clips as needed. All rubber bands and most self-stick notes were removed. Ditto sheets were removed when the duplicated pages existed. When Social Security Numbers were found on various papers, the SSNs were blacked out, the pages were then photocopied, and the originals were destroyed. Newspaper clippings were inserted between sheets of acid-free paper. Loose photographs, slides, and negatives were separated to the last series and inserted in archival sleeves, envelopes, or folders. The film reel was housed in its own archival box.

Separated Material

Simons' files on the annual Bridge Engineering Conference held by CSU's Department of Civil Engineering were transferred to the University Archives, along with two files on the summer surveying camp held by the same department. Simons did not seem to be directly involved in either of these activities, other than speaking at the conference one year, but probably had the files in relation to his role of associate dean.

Related Material

A number of reports by Simons can be found in the Papers of Whitney M. Borland. Also, Borland's report about his trip to Fort Collins to discuss Simons' Ph.D. thesis can be found in his travel reports (Series III, Subseries A).

Series Descriptions

Series I: United States Geological Survey, 1959-1962

This series consists of materials that remain from Simons' tenure at the United States Geological Survey. The bulk of the items concerns critical experiments that relate to sediment transportation. Much of the raw and charted data relates to bed load computations for different sized grains of sand. The materials are maintained in the order found.

Series II: Colorado State University, 1901, 1933-1984

This series consists of documents concerning Simons' teaching, advising, service and administrative responsibilities at Colorado State University. These are arranged into four subseries.
Subseries A: Teaching materials, 1933-1976
Simons regularly taught courses on erosion and sedimentation (CE 716) and river mechanics (CE 717). This subseries contains many of the handouts and references he used, as well as some of the problems and examinations he prepared for class. These folders remain in the order found, with a numbering system on the folders that seems to relate to the bibliography found in the first folder in the subseries. The files are followed by a bound volume of course materials for CE 813, Potamology, which is heavily annotated. At the end of the subseries are materials related to some miscellaneous classes, as well as to some of Simons' teaching experiences beyond his normal courses. These include a course for the Federal Highway Administration on rivers and highways, a course in Peru on advanced hydrology and water resources, and the National Science Foundation's Summer Institute in Fluvial Geomorphology that Simons directed in 1967 and 1968. The latter group of files contains information related to the participants as well as correspondence, textbook lists, reports, brochures, financial information and course outlines. Files of applicants and refusals were not retained.
Subseries B: Student files, 1958-1983
This subseries contains files on students who were either advisees of Dr. Simons or for whom he served on a graduate committee. Each file contains some indication of the student's research or course of study, most often being writings such as drafts or final copies of theses, dissertations, or other papers; files that did not contain such information were not retained. Though all transcripts and grade reports were removed, some files may contain a mixture of applications, correspondence, letters of recommendation, resumes, and photographs, requiring closure to all but the student named; however, access will be granted upon having written consent from the student or providing written proof that the student is deceased. The files are in alphabetical order by student's last name but represent only O-Z, with the exception of one B found elsewhere in the collection. Students in this grouping that stand out include E. V. Richardson, who became a professor of civil engineering at CSU, and James Van Hoften, who became an astronaut with NASA.
Subseries C: Conferences and committees, 1965-1983
This subseries documents Simons' participation in various water or engineering related conferences or committees. Items here were retained only if they pertained directly to Simons' participation. Presentation titles and abstracts are frequently present. The bodies most represented in this subseries are the Congress of the International Association for Hydraulic Research and the International Standards Organization (ISO). The latter grouping of files, which relates to Technical Committee (TC) 113, Liquid Flow in Open Channels, seems to have come to Simons from Alvin G. Anderson (AGA) at the University of Minnesota, perhaps when committee membership changed. Also included in the subseries is a folder on the D. B. Simons Symposium on Erosion and Sedimentation, held at CSU in honor of his retirement. The major material types in the subseries are correspondence, conference programs and reports. The files are arranged in chronological order, with the exception of the ISO files, which were kept together as a group at the beginning of the subseries.
Subseries D: Administrative files, 1901, 1950-1984
Contents of this subseries were largely acquired by Simons in his administrative role as associate dean of engineering research. Prominent are files related to the history of the university and the department of civil engineering, as well as files related to the construction of the hydraulics laboratory and the dedication of the Engineering Research Center. Also significant are files concerning the Parshall Research Fund and self-evaluation committee reports for the departments of electrical (1971), mechanical (1972), and civil (1973) engineering. A few files also relate to visiting professors or scholars, or to research trips Simons took. Materials include clippings, brochures, correspondence, reports, publications, financial documents and blueprints. Files are in alphabetical order.

Series III: Simons, Li and Associates, 1980-1988

This series contains documents related to Simons' work at Simons, Li and Associates, his consulting firm which focused on various water-related engineering issues. Much of the work represented here focuses on Colorado, California, the Mississippi River, and Argentina, though many other national and international locations are included, as are general research areas. The materials are arranged in groups of statements of qualification, proposals, reports, and miscellaneous files, with each group being in alphabetical order. One of the latter files contains documents relating to the Consulting Engineers Council of Colorado investigation of the firm.

Return to the Table of Contents




Series IV: Simons and Associates, 1977, 1985-1988

This series consists of documents from Simons' time at Simons and Associates. The majority of the files relate to a court case for which Simons served as expert witness. The "Mexico case," formally the two cases of Rene B. Gasser et al. vs. United States and Gordon Fuller Bailey vs. United States, concerns flooding of the plaintiffs' land purportedly from the construction of the Hoover Dam causing changes in sedimentation in the Lower Colorado and Rio Hardy river basins. Simons' deposition is included in the files. Also in the series are substantial files related to consulting work the firm did for Baker Engineers in Richfield, Utah, concerning the construction of a bridge and its interaction with the Cottonwood Creek floodplain. The materials in the series are arranged in three groups: Mexico case, Richfield consulting and publications. Files in the first two are maintained as found and the latter group is in alphabetical order by title. Material types included are correspondence, depositions and other court documents, maps, charts, notes, data, and reports.

Series V: Writings and speeches, 1954-1982

This series contains much of the research output by Simons and his collaborators that exists in the collection. However, it represents very little of Simons' lifetime work, as he has had over 445 publications. The writings in this series have few or no supporting files accompanying them. Publications that have substantial support materials can be found in Series VI: Research papers. The materials here are divided into three subseries by material type.
Subseries A: Articles, 1958-1982
This subseries primarily contains articles published by Simons and his collaborators. In some cases only a draft exists, but most of the items are reprints from the publisher. The articles cover subjects of hydraulics, sediment transport, alluvial channels and related topics. The articles are arranged alphabetically by title.
Subseries B: Monographs, 1954-1982
This subseries contains reports by Simons and his collaborators. A few of the items are draft copies, but most are the final version. Occasionally a letter indicating to whom the final draft of the report was sent is included. Simons' dissertation is included. The materials cover a range of subjects including hydraulic modeling, sediment transport, alluvial channels and others. The items are arranged alphabetically by title.
Subseries C: Speeches, 1960-1973
This subseries contains notes for, outlines of and full text of speeches and lectures given by Simons as well as related materials he used in preparation. His audiences ranged from CSU campus groups to international organizations, indicating his wide range of speaking engagements. Topics in the subseries range from the engineering job market to fluvial geomorphology, indicating his diversity of subjects. The folders are arranged chronologically.

Return to the Table of Contents




Series VI: Research papers, 1931-1990

This series consists of the materials created or used by Simons in relation to his research. Included are proposals requesting funding, proposals submitted but not funded, data gathered, reports and correspondence related to various projects, and reports, articles and books used for reference. The projects documented here are nowhere near comprehensive; they are only a small representation of what Simons worked on during his career. The materials are arranged into five subseries.
Subseries A: Proposals, 1968-1983
This subseries contains grant proposals submitted by Simons, mostly to federal agencies for various research projects. These were presumably funded, as they were distinctly separate from another set of files labelled "Rejected Proposals" (see next subseries). They are arranged in alphabetical order by title.
Subseries B: Rejected proposals, 1973-1980
This subseries contains grant proposals submitted by Simons mostly to federal agencies for various research projects which were not funded. They reveal the aspects of research that Simons was interested in pursuing but for which he did not receive support. The arrangement reflects the order as found.
Subseries C: Data, 1964-1979
An abundance of raw data is contained in this subseries, but the research to which the various data sets are related is not always apparent. The bulk of the subseries is made up of data sheets from five binders that appear to relate to sedimentation research. Also included are notebooks of data collected by Bhowmik and Wend, two of Simons' graduate students. The data was collected from canals in the Torrington, Wyoming, area. The folders are arranged in alphabetical order by folder title.
Subseries D: Research files, 1960-1990
This subseries consists of files that relate to Simons' research or consulting projects. For a given project, the files often go from start to finish, including the proposal, financial papers, correspondence, drafts (interim/progress reports) and the final reports. The projects best represented here concern the Mississippi River and Pakistan/Bangladesh (at the time, called East and West Pakistan). Other geographically grouped files include the Connecticut River, the Chippewa River (Wisconsin), and Arun, Nepal. Groups of subject-based or contractor-based files include flood protection at bridges, the Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station, Stone and Webster, and THEMIS, a Department of Defense funded program that involved research in Brazil and Venezuela. A few individual files are included, including one on the report Simons did for the National Academy of Science on the 1976 flood of the Big Thompson River (Colorado). Reports or publications that were found with the research files were retained with them. Master printing copies were discarded if a printed copy existed. Material types include correspondence, reports, proposals, maps, charts, data, publications, brochures, clippings, drawings, financial documents, and more (supporting documentation). The files are arranged alphabetically by project name.
Subseries E: Reference files, 1931-1990
This subseries consists of articles, books, reports, theses and the like that were retained with the collection. Reasons for retention include the item being annotated by Simons, dedicated to Simons, a copy of limited distribution or other reasons. The subjects represented are those that relate to Simons' research. Some correspondence that accompanied the items is included as well, as are some maps and drawings. The items are arranged in alphabetical order by title, as there was evidence in the collection that Simons had kept them that way.

Return to the Table of Contents




Series VII: Visual and audio materials, 1933-1991

Most of the materials in this series were found in other series and relocated here for better storage. The materials were arranged into two subseries based on format type.
Subseries A: Photographic materials, 1963-1991
This subseries gives a visual representation of Simons' research. Most of the photographs relate to places where he did his research, including Peru, Venezuela, Chile, Mexico, Nepal, Utah and the Big Thompson River in Colorado. There are also photos of a few events at CSU, as well as some photos from his students' projects related to Wyoming and Mount Saint Helens (Washington). The most complete set of photos is that by Bhowmik and Wend, two of Simons' students who did research on canals in Wyoming. Their materials include rolls of negatives and scrapbooks of photographs. In addition to geographic photos, there are scientific photos, including modeling studies. The items that relate to previous series are arranged with respect to that order. Unidentified materials are grouped at the end. Oversized materials are housed separately.
Subseries B: Other materials, 1933-1982
This subseries consists of objects not properly housed in other series. Items include charts and drawings, an audiocassette of a speech by Simons, a movie on the upper Mississippi and lower Illinois rivers, and a rubber stamp from the Parshall Research Fund. Objects are arranged alphabetically by type.
