Effects of Inflow Uncertainty on the Performance of Multireservoir Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Reservoirs are infrastructures that play an important role in supplying water. Hydrological and meteorological parameters, as the most important elements in reservoir systems’ simulations, are uncertain. Thus, such ... -
Dimensional Splitting Finite-Volume Method for Two-Dimensional Surface Water Flow Model in Basin Irrigation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)The concept of major direction correction is proposed, which includes complete major direction correction, major direction correction without roughness, and no major direction correction, based on the dimensional splitting ... -

Friction Head Loss in Center-Pivot Laterals with Single Diameter and Multidiameter
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)In this paper, efficient closed form expressions to compute the friction head loss in center-pivot laterals using the method of the discrete outflow distribution are presented. The results are applicable to center-pivot ... -
Simulation and Optimization Modeling for the Management of Groundwater Resources. II: Combined Applications
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)The world population is increasing continuously and is expected to reach the 9.5 billion mark in 2050 from the current 7.1 billion. The importance of the groundwater resources is also increasing with the increase in ... -
Effect of Deficit Irrigation on Yield, Quality, and Costs of the Production of Native Spearmint
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Water-saving strategies aimed at improving water use efficiency need to be applied in agriculture today to ensure sustainable use of scarce water resources. This article presents results of a 2-year study done at Washington ... -
Submerged Flows over Rectangular Weirs of Finite Crest Length
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This work presents a critical analysis of submerged flow over rectangular weirs of finite crest length. For finite crest length weirs, because the existing data sets are not extensive, new experiments for these weirs with ... -
New Results for an Approximate Method for Calculating Two-Dimensional Furrow Infiltration
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This study expands the analysis of a proposed furrow infiltration formulation based on an approximate solution to the two-dimensional Richards equation. The approach calculates two-dimensional infiltration flux as the sum ... -
Accuracy of Reference Evapotranspiration Estimation by Two Irrigation Controllers in a Humid Climate
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Increasing municipal water demand has led to new innovations in water-saving technology. Evapotranspiration-based irrigation controllers, also known as weather-based irrigation controllers, are a technology that use ... -
Discharge Coefficient of Circular-Crested Weirs Based on a Combination of Flow around a Cylinder and Circulation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Circular-crested weirs are overflow structures with a reasonably high discharge coefficient, compared with that of sharp- and broad-crested weirs. In this study, combining the potential flow around a circular cylinder and ... -
Assessing a Local Losses Evaluation Procedure for Low-Pressure Lay-Flat Drip Laterals
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)In the past, several research experiments have focused on the hydraulic characterization of traditional drip irrigation systems, and different design methodologies have been proposed with the aim of achieving very high ... -
