Abstract: Simulation models are becoming valuable tools for design and management of furrow irrigation systems. The Manning equation is used often for describing overland flow in these models. The past studies suggest that the Manning ...

Abstract: The time-rated infiltration families proposed by Merriam and Clemmens were further developed and evaluated using infiltration data for noncracking soils. Infiltration experiments were monitored, using a double-ring ...

Abstract: Based on a literature review, the suitability of the Manning equation to represent shallow flow in surface irrigation is questioned. This conclusion is supported by analysis of both experimental data of the present study ...
