a design discharge is an important issue in the design process of pressurized irrigation networks. underestimating the desing discharge affect, the required pressure and offtake discharge, increase the cost of the network. because of the lack of a standard and reliable method for this propuse, usually different approches are used by designers. the network fails to provide the required flow rate...

runoff is one of the major components of calculating water resource processes and is the main issue in hydrology. many concept models are used to predict the amount of runoff, which in most cases depend on topographical and hydrological data. conventional models are not appropriate for areas in which there is little hydrological data. changes in runoff are nonlinear, meaning it is time & space ...

pore network modeling uses a network of pores connected by throats to model the void space of a porous medium and tries to predict its various characteristics during multiphase flow of various fluids. in most cases, a non-realistic regular lattice of pores is used to model the characteristics of a porous medium. although some methodologies for extracting geologically realistic irregular network...

The project reported on here was undertaken with the primary objective of creating a database of commodity flows into and out of the counties of Indiana and to allocate this commodity traffic to the transportation network of the state. Such a database was to form the foundation for a general transportation model for Indiana that would assist state decision-makers in evaluating the various alter...

The paper discuses a new fundamental result in the theory of flow networks referred to as the ‘dual network theorem for static flow networks’. The theorem states that the maximum throughput flow in any static network is equal to the sum of the capacities of the edges coming out of the source, minus the total excess flow at all excess nodes, plus the maximum throughput flow in the dual network. ...

We study the problem of spreading a particular behavior among agents located in a random social network. In each period of time, neighboring agents interact strategically playing a 2 × 2 coordination game. Assuming a myopic-best response dynamics, we show that there exists a threshold for the degree of risk dominance of an action such that below that threshold, contagion of the action occurs. T...

Software Defined Network interoperate with other technologies like flow visor and open flow. This enables slicing of the network in many ways, including MAC, IP and VLAN. It also enables seamless interconnections with multiple controllers, providing the ability to run multiple applications each on a different controller. The purpose of this interoperability analysis is to test the applications ...
