What Is L3/D4 and Why Is It Good for the Seals If It Is Low?   Pump Source April 2003
What is L3/D4 (L cubed over D to the fourth)? It is a measure of pump rotor stiffness, its ability to resist radial load and to minimize deflection. It comes from the basic cantilevered beam deflection formula, which you can find in any book on mechanics: y = F x L3 / (3 x E x I), where F is radial load, L is cantilevered length, E modulus is the elasticity of the material and I is moment of inertia.

Infrastructure Relocation for a Growing Urban Community: Juggling Schedules and Methods   Water Engineering & Management March 2002
In the last decade, municipal leaders of medium-sized cities across the United States have rediscovered downtown urban centers. Economic development initiatives and long-term growth once again focus on these areas. As plans for revitalizing downtown neighborhoods begin to take shape, local governments are finding that existing infrastructures are inadequate to support the utility needs of incoming commercial and residential tenants. As a result, the need for infrastructure rehabilitation and utility service expansion is in high demand.
