Investigating the Influence of Changing Climate Patterns on Seasonal Water Availability Within Transboundary River Systems
Abstract: Climate change is significantly altering hydrological systems, particularly in transboundary river basins, which are crucial for regional economies, ecosystems, and human well-being. Variations in precipitation patterns, temperature fluctuations, and altered snowmelt are increasing the unpredictability of seasonal water availability, intensifying risks of both water scarcity and flooding. These shifts pose severe challenges to water management, often leading to disputes and complicating regional cooperation among riparian nations. This study investigates the …

First Order Sliding Mode Control of Coupled Tank System
Abstract: This paper investigates the challenging problem of liquid level control in Coupled Tank Systems (CTS). CTS, characterized by its nonlinear behaviour and sensitivity to disturbances, presents significant control challenges. This report suggests and assesses several control measures to solve these problems. Mathematical models are developed to capture the system's nonlinear dynamics, and controllers such as Proportional-Integral (PI) and Sliding Mode Controllers (SMC) are designed. The PI controller effectively regulates the …

Seasonal Dynamics of Coastal Landscapes: A Critical Review Using Remote Sensing and GIS
Abstract: Coastal landscapes are among the most dynamic environments on Earth, undergoing continuous transformation due to both natural processes and anthropogenic activities. In India, particularly along the southern coastal regions of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala, shoreline morphology and sediment transport patterns are significantly influenced by seasonal monsoons, cyclones, storm surges, waves, tides, and changing river discharges. These factors contribute to varying rates of coastal erosion, accretion, inundation, and land- …

A Model Approach of Controlling Coning in Oil Rim Reservoirs
Abstract: Water and gas coning in oil rim reservoirs poses serious hindrance to optimizing oil production in the thin oil beds as unwanted fluids tend to replace oil in the production stream. This invariably limits the ultimate oil recovery. In this study, semi-analytical models of estimating critical rate and optimum horizontal well placement were developed to control coning tendencies in oil rim reservoirs. The models were developed through semi-analytical analysis of …
