Abstract: The physics-based sediment transport equations are derived from the assumption that the sediment transport rate can be determined by a dominant variable such as flow discharge, flow velocity, slope, shear stress, stream ...

Abstract: The physics-based modeling of the rainfall-runoff induced erosion process is accomplished. The existing one-dimensional erosion process equations are extended to two dimensions and kinematic wave approximation is used. The ...

Abstract: An artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed to predict the longitudinal dispersion coefficient in natural streams and rivers. The hydraulic variables [flow discharge

Abstract: This study presents the development of artificial neural network (ANN) and fuzzy logic (FL) models for predicting event-based rainfall runoff and tests these models against the kinematic wave approximation (KWA). A three-layer ...

Abstract: Sediment transport on surfaces with spatially variable microtopography, roughness, and infiltration was investigated using the diffusion wave equation. An implicit finite-difference scheme together with multivariate Newton’s ...

Abstract: Transient bed sediment waves in alluvial rivers have been described using a multitude of hydraulic formulations. These formulations are based on some form of the St. Venant equations and conservation of mass of sediment ...

Abstract: By using the double-decomposition (DD) method, this study simulates transient sediment waves caused by aggradation described by a diffusion-type partial differential equation (PDE). The DD method solves the PDE by decomposing ...

Abstract: The modeling of flows at hillslope scale over land surfaces that contain rills and interrill areas is presented. The flow in rills is treated as one‐dimensional “channel flow.” The flow at interrill areas is treated as ...

Abstract: High-strength concretes (HSC) were prepared with five different binder contents, each of which had several silica fume (SF) ratios (0–15%). The compressive strength was determined at 3, 7, and 28 days, resulting in a total ...

Abstract: The genetic algorithm (GA) technique is applied to obtain optimal parameter values of the standard rating curve model (RCM) for predicting, in real time, event-based flow discharge hydrographs at sites receiving significant ...
