It has been known that the channel cross-section shape impacts on flow velocity at sediment deposition condition; however, existing models only apply to specific cross-section shapes and there has been a lack of a general ...

In this study, Regression in the Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RRKHS) technique which is a non-linear regression approach formulated in the reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RRKHS) is applied for rainfall-runoff (R-R) ...

The standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) at three different time scales (i.e., SPEI-3, SPEI-6, and SPEI-12) from six meteorology stations located in Turkey are modeled in this study. To this end, two ...

Assimilating unique features of genetic programming (GP) and gene expression programming (GEP), this study introduces a hybrid algorithm which results in promising incipient non-cohesive sediment motion models. The new ...

Sedimentation in sewer networks is a major problem in urban hydrology. In comparison to the well-known classic sediment transport models, this study investigates the capabilities of soft computing methods, including multigene ...

Mitigation of sediment deposition in lined open channels is an essential issue in hydraulic engineering practice. Hence, the limiting velocity should be determined to keep the channel bottom clean from sediment deposits. ...
