Extraction of Drainage Pattern and Watershed from SRTM Data Using GIS Tools: A Case Study
Abstract: This paper proposes a fast and an inexpensive method for delineating the drainage and watershed of a sub-basin. Planning of the water resource management is evolving from simple local-scale problems toward complex spatially explicit regional scale. Such problems have to be addressed with distributed models that can compute runoff and erosion at different spatial and temporal scales. In general, watershed can range from as little as one hectare to hundreds …

Early Postoperative Outcome of Primary Closure versus T-Tube Drainage of Common Bile Duct after Open Choledocholithotomy
Abstract: Background: Choledocholithiasis is the formation of stones in the common bile duct (CBD). These stones are removed by performing CBD exploration and the closure can be done over T-tube or primarily without T-tube. The method of T-tube drainage comes with many complications and hence, nowadays, there is tendency to close CBD primarily to avoid the tube-related complications. Aims: To compare the early postoperative outcome of primary closure versus T-tube drainage …

A Review of Runoff Strategies in Developed and Developing Countries: Using Polymer Materials for Stormwater Management
Abstract: Urban hydrology is essential to the system used to manage urban runoff. Stormwater drainage in metropolitan areas has become a problem as a result of rapid urbanization, the depletion of vegetation, deteriorating drainage infrastructure, and climate change. The natural hydrological cycle is impacted by urbanization by raising peak flows and reducing lag times. Urban areas experience more floods as a result, while the environment suffers as a result of accelerated …

Gravel Scrap Tires Admixed Drainage Material in Landfill Leachate Collection System
Abstract: Amidst water for sustenance, underground water quality becomes further deterministic. The stance of its continual contamination due to infiltration, uncontrolled industrialization, unplanned inhabitation, etc., is making “quantity” meaningless unless maintenance of quality is addressed. One of the potent measures to combat this infiltration is creation of a semi-impervious media below the subsoil, which may regulate the outcome judiciously, and in a proffered way. The logistics, however, do not allow planned …
