we consider a grid network where nodes contain small buffers. a packet that faces a crowded buffer in its route will get extra latency and may be dropped. in this paper, we propose a novel flow control protocol called rfcc for grid networks. rfcc tries to reroute delayed packets and utilizes network coding to introduce a configurable amount of redundant information in the network, thereby incre...

Accurate estimate of flood flows at selected return periods is a fundamental step in flood control and design of hydraulic structures. Due to the inadequacy or unavailability of flood flow records in several western catchments of Iran, traditional regional flood frequency methods lead to remarkable estimate errors, particularly for long return periods. In this research, discriminant analysis is...

As the number of available multiprocessors increases, so does the importance of providing software support for these systems, including parallel compilers. Data flow analysis, an important component of software tools, may be computed many times during the compilation of a program, especially when compiling for a multiprocessor. Although converting a sequential data flow algorithm to a parallel ...

construction of the intake structures to divert some portion of flow water from a main channel causes some variations of flow conditions at the intake entrance. these variations cause the reinforcement of the eddy flow and sedimentation in the bank of the intake. an effective measure to control the entry sediment is the use of submerged vanes. most of previous studies in this regards have been ...

grade control structures are hydraulic structures used to stabilize a river bed. scour downstream of this structure is the main cause of its failure. studies have developed numerous empirical relations for scour depth prediction that designers must choose between to decide the most effective equation for a specific application. this study tested the condition of submerged jets over beds of sedi...

hydraulic simulation of water flow in irrigation canals may reveal management shortcomings and help managers find solutions to them. hydraulic simulation models can be appropriate tools for understanding hydraulic behavior of irrigation systems. in the present study, the steady state hec-ras model was tested and compared with the mike 11 unsteady state model. a secondary irrigation canal in the...

An overview of future structures technology for military air vehicles is given. The overview is prefaced by a discussion of the factors influencing structures research today. The key to meeting affordability and rapid technology insertion is identified as simulation-based prototyping, including certification by analysis. Other enabling structures technology candidates for future systems are dis...
