A GIS Based Geomorphic Approach for the Digital Computation of Time-Area Curves
Hydrologists routinely operate simulation models to approximate the runoff process. A popular strategy is the routing of a 'time-area' histogram. In addition, state-of-the-art hydrologic...
The Application of GIS Technology in Planning and Maintaining Distribution and Collection Systems
To date, the use of geographic information in the planning and maintenance of distribution and collection systems has been limited to AM/FM systems. However, the needs of engineers while...
GIS Implementation on a Desktop Workstation
Geographic Information System (GIS) has now become an economically feasible reality. Technological progress allowed GIS capability at a very low cost. This progress greatly contributed...
A Perfect Base for a GIS: The Digital Orthophoto
A digital orthophoto is a rectified image with no relief displacement or radial distortion inherent in an aerial photo. One advantage of a digital orthophotography is that it can be used...
Creativity and Water Resources: Theory and Stimulation
An attempt was made to assess the evolution of the water resources field. First, the most significant scientific advancements in the field since 2000 BC until early 1900 AD were listed...
Application of GIS in Monitoring and Trouble Shooting of Water Distribution Systems
In this study, the suitability of Geographical Information System (GIS) to monitor water distribution systems is investigated. Although GIS applications are widespread, the use of GIS...
The Use of GIS in the Study of Water Resources
GIS is becoming an increasingly important tool to the water resource plannar and manager. However, in order to integrate GIS effectively into this field, current and future hydrologists...
Is GIS in Water Resources Better or Different
The Geographic Information System (GIS) is a relatively new tool which, when applied properly, may greatly benefit the water resources analyst. GIS technology combines sophisticated graphical...
Field Data-Gathering: Critical First Step for a GIS
Gathering data in the field is one of the first major tasks required for developing a geographic information system (GIS) or automated mapping/facilities management (AM/FM) system. This...
Stormwater/Wastewater Management: How an Application Can Drive a GIS
Decision makers are finding that a much-needed application may be the key that drives the creation of a city- or county-wide Geographic Information System (GIS). A start-up GIS developed...
Singularity Elements for the p-Version of the FEM
Singularity elements have been widely researched and successfully used with the h-version for fracture mechanics problems. This paper gives the results of numerical experiments with conventional...
Biomechanics of Local Articular Incongruities
Abnormalities of intra-articular contact near sites of local surface incongruity are frequently associated with secondary osteoarthrosis. We here review a series of experimental and computational...
