ASCE ( American Society of Civil Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment.

Optimal Water Management for Reservoir Based Irrigation Projects Using Geographic Information System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The shortage of reservoir water is the main constraint in establishing stable water management programs in the Muda Irrigation Project, Malaysia. In this study, a water balance equation was derived to evaluate the performance ...
Two‐Dimensional Simulation of Basin Irrigation. I: Theory
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Overland flow of water over a porous bed in two spatial dimensions is governed by three partial differential equations accounting for continuity of momentum in the
Two‐Dimensional Simulation of Basin Irrigation. II: Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The development of a two‐dimensional hydrodynamic simulation model of basin irrigation is reported in a companion paper. This article presents four applications of the model. Two hypothetical case studies are used to ...
Transient Hydraulic Model for Simulating Canal‐Network Operation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Renewed interest in the role of delivery networks in farm‐level water‐use efficiency has prompted the development of a transient hydraulic simulation model for improving the operation and design of irrigation canal networks. ...
Centralized Scheduling Logic for Canal Operation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Many schemes and devices have been developed and tested during the past three decades for automatic control of canal networks. Most of these have used local flow criteria to determine gate settings. Computer simulation of ...
