Computation Analysis of Selected Communities Water Quality Assessment
Abstract: The study is aimed at evaluating water quality based on assessed parameters for Ede, Erema, Obagi and Oboboru Communities groundwater. The mathematical computations using water quality index model (WQI) reveals WQI ranges as 53.89, 23.85, 33.06 and 36 for Ede, Erema, Obagi and Oboboru Communities indicating poor water quality for Ede Community and good water quality for Erema, Obagi and Oboboru Communities. Therefore, there is need to treat groundwater from …

Validating the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) terrestrial water storage dataset using Terra MODIS NDVI anomaly.
Abstract: The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) is the advance tool for mapping the changes in the gravitation field of the earth. The satellite launches in 2002 and the follow off mission is in 2016. The gravitational changes of the earth are downscaled into the changes in the mass with the different algorithm by three institutions. Further the mass anomaly is converted into the equivalent water thickness of the terrestrial …

Estimation of Peak Flood Discharge for the Ungauged Catchments in the Tributaries of River Sutlej using Synthetic Unit Hydrograph Approach
Abstract: Estimation of peak flood discharge (PFD) for a given return period is of utmost importance for planning and design of hydraulic structures, river protection works, and development of integrated water resources management projects which can be computed by applying various approaches viz., flood frequency analysis, rational formula, envelope curve and synthetic unit hydrograph (SUH). In this paper, SUH approach is adopted for estimation of PFD for the ungauged catchments viz. …

Extreme Value Analysis of Rainfall using L-Moments of Five Probability Distributions for Chandwa and Latehar Sites in Jharkhand
Abstract: Estimation of rainfall for a given return period is of utmost importance for planning, design and management of civil and hydraulic structures. This can be achieved by conducting Extreme Value Analysis (EVA) of rainfall that consists of fitting probability distributions (PDs) to the annual maximum series of rainfall. In this paper, a study on intercomparison of L-Moments (LMO) of five PDs viz., Extreme Value Type-1 (EV1), Extreme Value Type-2, Generalized …

ASSESSMENT OF BUILDING AGAINST FLOOD
Abstract: Flood problem is vital problem for building, railway track, highway etc. Thrust of water due to standing water & velocity of flow taken place on building i.e. above G.L. & below G.L. due to percolation of water. If 70 cm thick layer of silty sand is spread all around the building the percolation of water below G.L. is prevented. Here analysis is made due to thrust taking place of water …
