The rating curve is the relationship between the water stage and the associated discharge in a givensection of a channel. In steady flow, this relationship usually has exponential type, whereas inunsteady it flow has a looped shape. Since direct developing of actual looped rating curve by usinghydrometric methods is merely possible, steady-state rating curve is commonly used as a downstreamboun...

by far, different models for determining the relationship between the flow rate  and amount of precipitation have been developed. many models are based on regression models with limited assumptions. one of the most common methods for estimating  sediment of rivers is sediment rating curve. for better estimation of the amount of sediment based of sediment curve  rating equation, it is possible t...

Left ventricular (LV) systolic timing and relative volume variations were simultaneously measured by electromagnetic flowmeter (EMF) and high frame rate ECG-gated blood pool scintigraphy in five baboons. No significant differences (p greater than 0.1, paired t test) were observed in the time (from R wave) to peak aortic flow (maximum LV ejection rate), time to cessation of aortic flow (end-syst...

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES To investigate the feasibility of recent contrast-specific ultrasound techniques in depicting vascular flow and the effects of changing the output power of the transducer and insonation mode on contrast enhancement, the authors performed an experimental study with a flow phantom. METHODS While changing the mechanical index and the sound insonation mode (continuous and...
