[1] Hydrographs are an enticing focus for hydrologic research: they are readily available hydrological data that integrate the variety of terrestrial runoff generation processes and upstream routing. Notwithstanding, new techniques to glean information from the hydrograph are lacking. After early approaches of graphically separating streamflow components, hydrograph separations in the past two ...

The Rational method was reviewed, and found to be a special case of the kinematic wave solution under a uniform rainfall excess. In this study, a moving average procedure is introduced to the kinematic wave model. The kinematic wave solution is modified from an instantaneous rainfall to an average rainfall over a period of time of concentration. The revised kinematic wave solution provides the ...

In recent years, fuzzy inference systems have been used as an effective method for forecasting problems instead of classical time series methods. Fuzzy are based on sets and use membership values well the original data. The regression functions approach, which is one popular systems, has different importance from many with its features that it does not a rule base easier to apply, unlike in lit...

Design hydrographs are important for the design of hydraulic structures such as spillways and retention ponds. Due to the lack of the local data, engineers have to estimate design floods based on techniques which are able to predict runoff based on rainfall on a regional basis. In this study, Clark instantaneous unit hydrographs are used to predict design flood hydrographs for the selected catc...
