Reservoir Storage Reallocation Analysis with PC
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)Reallocation of storage may increase a reservoir's capability to satisfy municipal and industrial water‐supply demands. The reallocation, however, simultaneously may decrease the reservoir's capability to satisfy competing ... -
Decision Support System for Estuarine Water‐Quality Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)A decision support system for the water‐quality management of the Tejo estuary, named Hypertejo, is presented. Hypertejo is based on a chain of data bases, dispersion, nonpoint pollution, and regional water‐quality management ... -
Risk Equivalent Seasonal Discharge Programs for Multidischarger Streams
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)Water quality management programs that allow different waste discharge rates during different seasons of the year are an innovative approach for reducing the cost of waste treatment. This paper presents an approach for ... -
Simple Stochastic Model for Annual Flows
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)Persistence is a phenomenon greatly influencing hydrologic time series. An explanation of its nature has been attempted in different ways, including transitory behavior or infinite memory of the process, and nonstationary ... -
Perspectives on Water Resources Education and Training
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)An ASCE Task Committee conducted an opinion survey of 563 engineering professionals on the adequacy of current educational programs in water resources engineering. Where the responses of practicing professionals and educators ... -
Estimating Uncertainty of Stormwater Runoff Computations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)The stormwater runoff quantity component of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers storage, treatment, overflow, and runoff model (STORM) program has been successfully calibrated and verified for a residential community located ... -
Optimizing Spillway Capacity with Uncertainty in Flood Estimator
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)The spillway design flood is a function of social, moral, economic, and technological restrictions. Given the significant initial cost of a spillway and the very high cost of dam failure and downstream damages, the economic ... -
Calibration of SWMM Runoff Quality Model with Expert System
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)EPA'S storm water management model (SWMM) simulates urban runoff quantity and quality. An interactive program has been developed by using expert‐system technology to automate the calibration of the water‐quality parameters ... -
Water Management: Challenge and Opportunity
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)Water management is multidimensional. It embraces planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance. Its ingredients include technological capability, social attitudes, economic realities, political viewpoints, ... -
Economic Aspects of Groundwater Withdrawal Permit Transfers
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)The economic properties of three different permitting options for regulating ground‐water withdrawals are estimated by computer simulation of the economic return for irrigation of corn. The three regulatory options consist ... -
Risk‐Cost Design of Pavement Drainage Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)A practical method for determining the road surface drainage system design with the theoretical lowest total economic cost (LTEC) is developed. The LTEC method determines the design rain which, when used in a rational‐based ... -
Optimal Hydropower System Configuration Based on Operational Analysis
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)The problem of optimal multiunit hydropower system configuration is analyzed considering long‐term operational aspects. The spatial distribution of individual system elements such as reservoirs and the vertical configurations ... -
Economic Reservoir Design and Storage Conservation by Reduced Sedimentation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)A mathematical model has been developed for estimating the design storage capacity of a reservoir by using the expected water demand, storage loss due to sedimentation, and physical and hydrological characteristics of the ... -
Geomorphologic Rainfall‐Runoff Model: Incorporating Philip's Infiltration Expression
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)This paper presents a watershed discharge hydrograph simulation model, based on the hydraulically based geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph (IUH), developed by Kirshen and Bras (1983). This IUH was derived as a ... -
Reclaimed Wastewater Storage in Ground‐water Basins
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)In the absence of an alternative means of wastewater disposal, wastewater reclamation projects involving the use of reclaimed water for irrigation require facilities for seasonally storing the reclaimed water. Surface ... -
Design of Dilution Junctions for Water Quality Control
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)A method for extending the available water supply in a region is discussed. Using dilution (mixing) junctions, brackish water is mixed with higher quality water, thus producing the required water quality. For good results, ... -
Optimization of Value of CVP's Hydropower Production
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1990)CVPOP is a nonlinear programming model for the optimization of the multi‐month operation of the hydropower system of the California Central Valley Project (CVP). CVPOP includes the dependence of energy values within each ... -
