Numerical simulation of dike erosion process due to overtopping flow
(Journal of JSCE, 2014)
Dike failures due to overtopping flows have recently occurred during floods. It is of great importance to understand the mechanism of dike failure processes and to predict dike erosion accurately for disaster mitigation. ...
Separation of water-in-oil emulsions by freeze/thaw method and microwave radiation
(Elsevier, 2006)
In this paper, the demulsification has been achieved with the use of freeze/thaw (F/T) method and microwave radiation (MWR). The object of investigation were emulsion samples prepared by mixing the metal-working-oil, FESOL ...
Non-parametric Stochastic Generation of Streamflow Series at Multiple Locations
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2015)
A non-parametric method for generating stationary weekly hydrologic time series at multiple locations is presented. The procedure has three distinct steps: first, the Monte Carlo method is used to obtain 1000 years of ...
Pressure drop test as a hydroinformatic tool for preliminary network topology validation
(IWA Publishing, 2019)
Usage of the appropriate model of water distribution systems (WDS) enables easier everyday operations and management decisions. Creating a reliable model of WDS requires a large amount of system response data for different ...
Bed-mounted Electro Magnetic meters: Implications for robust velocity measurement in Urban Drainage systems
(Elsevier B.V., 2018)
Flow monitoring in Urban Drainage Systems (UDS) is required for a successful system control and operational assessment. Commonly used methods can lead to erroneous results in partially filled pipes and hostile environmental ...
Real-time forecasting urban drainage models: full or simplified networks?
(Water Science and Technology, 2010)
Lead time between rainfall prediction results and flood prediction results obtained by hydraulic simulations is one of the crucial factors in the implementation of real-time flood forecasting systems. Therefore, hydraulic ...
Long-term thermal two- and three-dimensional analysis of roller compacted concrete dams supported by monitoring verification
(Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2010)
This paper presents two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) numerical models for unsteady phased thermal analysis of RCC dams. The time evolution of a thermal field has been modeled using the actual dam shape, RCC ...
Ski jump design
(Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers-Water Management, 2010)
This paper is concerned with ski jump design for overflow dams and chute spillways. Despite the vast scope of literature on this subject, research in this field is still needed. Three important issues are addressed: take-off ...
Fuzzy approach in the uncertainty analysis of the water distribution network of Becej
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2006)
One of the most important steps in the development of water distribution system simulation models is providing the dependence of results of simulation on the uncertainty of input values. Information about propagation of ...
The effect of different extractants on lead desorption from a natural mineral
(Elsevier B.V., 2015)
Natural minerals, such as quartz, clinoptilolite and calcite, are useful as sorbents for various applications, but their content of heavy metals ions is the most problematic obstacle to their application. Before their ...
