Abstract: There are now several kinds of probabilistic meteorology outlooks available to the water resource engineer or hydrologist. These outlooks are defined over different time periods at different lag times, and they forecast ...

Abstract: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Climate Prediction Center recently began issuing new multiple long-lead outlooks of meteorological probabilities. Operational hydrology approaches for generating ...

Abstract: In practice, runoff peak flow rates are typically estimated by the rational method, a design storm unit hydrograph (UH) method, or a statistical regression equation. In this technical note, the balanced design storm UH ...

Abstract: Given a set of realizations of error data (i.e., the difference between model runoff estimates and stream gauge data) from rainfall-runoff hydrologic models, it is possible to generate a set of error transfer function ...

Abstract: Storm frequencies for the future are often estimated directly from past historical records of sufficient length. The estimation requires no detailed knowledge of the area's meteorology, but presumes it is unchanged in the ...

Abstract: This paper briefly summarizes an existing nonparametric method for using meteorology probability forecasts in operational hydrology and extends it for parametric estimation. The methodology builds a sample of possibilities ...

Abstract: An alternative approach to the estimation of the critical cornering speed of large combination vehicles is presented. Existing techniques are based on analytical models subject to a series of simplifying assumptions, and ...

Abstract: The kinematic synthesis of planar linkage mechanisms has traditionally been broken into the categories of motion, path, and function generation. Each of these categories of problems has been solved separately. Many problems ...
