Abstract: In semiarid regions where water resources are scarce, irrigation water use efficiency is an important issue. Although subsurface drip irrigation is a very efficient irrigation method, it has had relatively limited expansion ...

Abstract: This paper describes the design and calibration of a compound sharp-crested weir consisting of two triangular parts with different notch angles. This weir provides accurate measurement for a wide range of flows without ...

Abstract: The optimization of looped water distribution networks (WDN) implies achieving the best tradeoff between reliability and cost. Many works have dealt with minimizing the cost, but few have considered both cost and reliability. ...
