  • EFFECT OF INTERMEDIATE DRAINS AND LEAKAGE THROUGH SHEETPILE LINES ON THE ' UPLIFT PRESSURES 
    Chawla, A. S. (1973)
    The stability of a hydraulic structure. founded on p, meable soil haste be ensured against uplift pressures and piping. The problem of seepage under such structures belongs to a general class of confined flow problems . ...
  • A SIMULATION STUDY OF TUNNEL EXCAVATION 
    Chauhan, R. L. (1982)
    The inherent uncertainties in tunnelling which may be due to geological formations, management effectiveness and equipment performance need to be studied through stochastic modelling. The conventional deterministic approach ...
  • OPTIMAL OPERATION OF POWER SYSTEM WITH MULTI RESERVOIRS AS APPLIED TO BHAKRA-BEAS SYSTEM 
    Chauhan, R. C. (1983)
    Expanding Multi Reservoir Systems are being created to Vi meet increasing demand of water and power. Operation practices and decisions based on judgemental decisions still being follow-ed cannot be optimal. These decisions ...
  • PRICING POLICY FOR IRRIGATION WATER 
    Padhi, Gopinath (1983)
    Development of Irrigation involves heavy investments. Lack of rational pricing policy has led to many misgivings. This may be attributed to the complexities involved in the process as well as inadequate attention by planners ...
  • HYDRAULIC FRACTURING WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO SOIL CYLINDERS 
    Hassani, Abdul Wahed (1984)
    Hydraulic fracturing is a live problem these days in the field of geotechnical engineering. The application of the concept of hydraulic fracturing to geotechnical problems, and in particular, to the development of cracks ...
  • EFFECT OF INTERMEDIATE DRAINS ON STABILITY OF STRUCTURES FOUNDED ON SOIL OF FINITE DEPTH 
    Kumar, Akhilesh (1985)
    The stability of hydraulic structures founded on permeable soil has to be ensured against forces caused by percolating water. The seepage water exerts uplift pressure below the structure and tends to remove the soil particles ...
  • LOSS MINIMIZATION IN TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM 
    Bhatele, Ram Prakash (1985)
    The demand for electrical energy is increasing exponentially with the time and it has become necessary for the electrical industry to transport a large amount of power over large and complex transmission and distribution ...
  • STUDIES ON HYDROMORPHOMETRY AND SNOWMELT RUNOFF USING DATA OF CHENAB CATCHMENT 
    Roohani, Mohammad Sarwar (1986)
    The planning and development of water resources of a region requires proper understanding of the hydrological behaviour of the river basins. The analysis of available information is necessary to decide about water ...
  • THREE DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS OF •ROCKFILL DAMS UNDER GRAVITY LOADING 
    Singh, Ram Pal (1991)
    The objective of this study is to carry out three dimensional sequential non-linear analysis of rockfill dams with central core for gravity loading. The dams have been considered to be located in valleys of different shapes ...
  • DEVELOPMENT OF EXPERT SYSTEM FOR CONTRACTUAL RISK SHARING IN TUNNEL CONSTRUCTION 
    Badarinath, H. S. (1991)
    Tunnel construction is a subject involving uncertainties arising due to the geology of the rock formations, efficiency and output of the tunnelling equipment and the management conditions. The resulting cost and time ...
  • SIMULATION STUDY OF AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF CANAL 
    Samih, Ashraf Saad Zaghlool Abdel (1993)
    Supervisory control is a control system in which system information is periodically monitored and globally analyzed to decide the control action. In a multi-reach, multi-offtake canal system with changing lateral flow ...
  • TECHNO ECONOMIC AND MANAGEMENT (TEAM) APPROACH TO RIVER BASIN PLANNING 
    Bony, Maryono (1993)
    Multiple reservoir planning and management related to water resources mobilization within a river basin involves numerous rather complex physical, technological, economic and social aspects. Often, the most difficult ...
  • SEEPAGE FROM CANAL WITH ASYMMERIC DRAINAGES 
    Kirkos, Abate Tadesse Wolde (1993)
    Canals are widely used in irrigation schemes as a major conveyance system. Most of the canals are unlined and the amount of actual water finally available for irrigation is significantly less than the quantity of water ...
  • SEEPAGE FROM CANALS FOUNDED ON FINITE PERVIOUS SOIL WITH ASYMMETRIC DRAINAGES 
    Goyal, Rohit (1994)
    Cana seepage estimation is of considerable importance for economic justification of canal lining. Determination of phreatic surface due to seepage from canal helps in estimating the area likely to be water—logged. Seepage ...
  • CONJUNCTIVE USE MANAGEMENT OF SURFACE AND GROUND WATER 
    Mousa, Alzakzook Khalil F. (1995)
    The management of regional water resources needs careful planning with regard to assessment of their availability and economics of allocation and use without degradation of the environment. An irrigation system which is ...
  • EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON CHARACTERISTICS OF BRAIDED STREAMS 
    Abdullah, Mohammad (2001)
    Alluvial river channels are 'self-formed' as they flow over the alluvial lands having sandy-silty-clay materials. Their morphology results from the entrainment, transportation and deposition of the unconsolidated sedimentary ...
  • STUDY OF SCOUR AROUND PERMEABLE SPURS 
    Shah, Shagoofta Rasool (2001)
    Increasing economic costs of river protection works in India have led to the adoption of permeable spurs in practice. However, research on different types of permeable spurs is not developed to the same extent as that on ...
