Abstract: The artificial neural networks (ANNs) that try to mimic the functioning of the human brain are a powerful tool for input-output mapping. The setting up of a stage-discharge relation is an important part of the processing ...

Abstract: The establishment of a rating curve is an important problem in hydrology. Generally, a regression approach is applied to establish the relationship between stage and discharge. However, this approach fails in the cases ...

Abstract: A simple and accurate method is developed for designing single, paired, and tapered microirrigation laterals. The hydraulics of the lateral is evaluated using a lateral discharge equation approach. A simple power equation ...

Abstract: The Thiessen polygon method is commonly used in hydrological modeling to estimate average areal rainfall from point measurements. This paper presents and compares two fast methods for computerized estimation of Thiessen ...

Abstract: Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are new computing architectures in the area of artificial intelligence. The present study aims at the application of ANNs for reservoir inflow prediction and operation. The Upper Indravati ...

Abstract: A procedure for the numerical integration of the constitutive equations of the endochronic theory of plasticity is presented. Methods are established for the determination of endochronic material functions from the results ...

Abstract: This note simplifies the widely used parameter estimator methods, namely, method of moments (MOM) and probability weighted moment (PWM) for the three-parameter generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution for improved ...
