An Assessment of Structural Safety of Cement Mortar Lined Irrigation Water Pipeline by Hydrostatic Test
Abstract: Structural safety of cement mortar-lined water pipeline is a matter of great concern primarily due to weld defects, fabrication deficiency and assessment of pressure shared by lining. The verification of structural design of such pipeline and assessment of safety is generally carried out by conducting prototype hydrostatic test. The present paper is based on one such type of study conducted by CWPRS, Pune, for Guthpha Lift Irrigation Scheme, Nizamabad, Andhra …

River Science Research: Multidisciplinary To Trans Disciplinary
Abstract: We are in the decay where water is important as well as complex concern of our day to day life. River is the main source of surface water. It’s merely essential to figure out the issues that will affect the river changes for successful river management. Due to enormously uncertain spatial; temporal multidimensional characteristic of river change it’s very difficult to give exact theoretical concept to address this issue. There …

River Water and Soil Analysis in Noyyal River, Tirupur
Abstract: Tirupur is famous for its textile industries. Because of this, the rate of water pollution is also very high. The generation of waste water from the industries is the main reason for the waste water problems to the environment. Some industries are not adopting any proper treatment methods to avoid this pollution, because of the high treatment cost. Without giving proper treatment the waste water is dumping in to the …

Water and Social Responsibilities
Abstract: Water is unanimously acknowledged as a symbol of life as it is the most vital for maintaining an environment and ecosystem contributing to support all forms of life. It plays an important role in fulfilling basic human need for life and health but also in socio-economic development. 18% of the world’s population lack access to safe drinking water. By 2025, it is estimated that two thirds of the world’s population …

Land Surface Temperature Estimation using Landsat ETM+ Data
Abstract: Land Surface Temperature (LST) can be estimated from remotely sensed satellite data. LST is a key parameter in the physics of land surface processes because it is involved in the energy balance as well as in the evapo-transpiration and desertification processes. The knowledge of surface temperature is important to a range of issues and themes in earth sciences central to urban climatology, global environmental change, and human-environment interactions. In this …
