Abstract Indian river basins are intensively managed with country-specific agricultural practices of cultivating submerged paddy and uncontrolled groundwater (GW) irrigation. Numerical experiments the state-of-the-art land surface models, such as variable infiltration capacity (VIC), without incorporating region-specific practices, could be misleading. Here, we coupled VIC 2D GW model AMBHAS, I...

A recently calibrated urban runoff model, the Source Loading and Management Model (SLAMM), is used to compare the cost-effectiveness of using source area and regional stormwater treatment practices. The demonstration is done for the totally urbanized Lake Wingra watershed in Madison, Wisconsin. The goal is to retrofit practices that are able to reduce the annual total suspended solids load by 4...

abstract this study addresses two dimensional infiltration from irrigated furrows. the basic approach is to develop a two-dimensional infiltration as a combination of the corresponding one-dimensional vertical and an edge effect. the edge effect is the difference between the cumulative infiltration per unit of adjusted wetting perimeter and the corresponding one-dimensional infiltration. this a...

introduction: inferior mandibular bolck anesthesia, some time causes postoperative lip and tongue biting trauma, however, an infiltration injection with a limited anesthetized area, has less complications. the aim of present study is to compare of two techniques (block and infiltration) for class i restorative treatment in primary second molars. methods and materials: fourty children between 5-...

In dentin restoration, collagen fiber network infiltration is an issue. Using data from the litterature, we have constructed a relevant numerical geometrical model of the network. The specificity of our model is that the fibers are taken into account implicitly using a regularized Heaviside function. This function is either used to set the viscosity or to localize the contact line where capilla...

soil hydrau-physical data are important for many hydrological modelings. they are the main variables controllingthe key processes such as water and chemicals movement and transport in the soil profiles. this study was conductedin order to analyze the spatial distribution of selected soil hydrau-physcial characteristics including infiltration rate(ir), saturated hydraulic conductivity (ks), bulk...

the aim of this research was to study the wear behavior of 42crmo4 steel/zro2 composite with 10 and 30 ppi performed ceramic and compare it with the un-reinforced steel under different applied loads. the composite specimens were obtained by pressureless infiltration of the melt into a preformed ceramic of zirconium oxide. the effect of applied load on the specimens wear behavior was studied by ...
