Rainfall is a principal element of the hydrological cycle and its variability is important from both the scientific as well as socio-economic point of view. This study presents an analysis based on the precipitation variation in Assam, India over 102 years from 1901 to 2002. Precipitation data...

Regionalization methods are often used in hydrology for frequency analysis of floods. The hydrologically homogeneous regions should be determined using cluster analysis instead of the geographically close stations. In view of the ongoing environmental and climate changes in the Northeastern of...

The forecast of the sediment yield generated within a watershed is an important input in the water resources planning and management. The methods for the estimation of sediment yield based on the properties of flow and sediment have limitations attributed to the simplification of important...

Estimation of scour downstream of a ski-jump bucket has been a topic of research among hydraulic engineers. For estimation of scour downstream of ski jump bucket, several empirical models are in use. In recent years, there has been emphasis to develop models which are capable of producing scour...

Optimal use of scarce water resources is the prime objective for water resources development projects in the developing country like India. Optimal releases have been generally expressed as a function of reservoir state variables and hydrologic inputs by a relationship which ultimately allows...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to analyze annual energy expenditure in the presence of non-linear load and substation voltage harmonics in distribution systems. Economic assessment of non-sinusoidal energy is a challenging task that involves complex computations of harmonic load powers...
