Flood Frequency Analysis contains information from authentic highly regarded reference resources. A substantial number of tables related to flood frequency analysis are included and will enable the student to understand the data required for adequate analysis. Also presented is a good selection of figures illustrating solutions to flood frequency problems. It is a state-of-the-art presentation and is important as a source of graduate reference material.

After five decades, the field of Statistical Hydrology continues to evolve and remains a very active area of investigation. Researchers continue to examine various distributions, methods of estimation of parameters, and problems related to regionalization. However, much of this research appears in journals and reports and usually in a form not easily accessible to practitioners and students-producing a gap between research and practice.
Flood Frequency Analysis fills this gap by presenting many of these distributions and estimation procedures in a unified format within a single, self-contained book. Focusing on distribution families popular within the hydrologic community, the authors discuss three parameter estimation methods for each distribution: the method of moments, the maximum likelihood method, and the method of probability weighted moments. They present the details behind the procedures to provide the basis for the computations, and they illustrate each procedure with real data. Most of the computations discussed have been programmed for use with personal computers, and executable versions of these programs are available on CD-ROM from the senior author.
Only increased use of new methods and distributions can produce a consensus on their validity. With other books on the subject either limited in scope or seriously outdated, Flood Frequency Analysis provides the ideal vehicle for practicing hydrologists and engineers to explore and apply the latest methods and research results, and in doing so, contribute to the advancement of the field.

Dynamic Programming Based Operation of Reservoirs: Applicability and Limits
Author: K. D. W. Nandalal and Janos J. Bogardi | Size: 12.70 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Cambridge University Press | Year: 2007 | pages: 144 | ISBN: 0521874084
Product Description:
Dynamic programming is a method of solving multi-stage problems in which decisions at one stage become the conditions governing the succeeding stages. It can be applied to the management of water reservoirs, allowing them to be operated more efficiently. This is one of the few books dedicated solely to dynamic programming techniques used in reservoir management. It presents the applicability of these techniques and their limits on the operational analysis of reservoir systems. The dynamic programming models presented in this book have been applied to reservoir systems all over the world, helping the reader to appreciate the applicability and limits of these models. The book also includes a model for the operation of a reservoir during an emergency situation. This volume will be a valuable reference to researchers in hydrology, water resources and engineering, as well as professionals in reservoir management.
Book Description:
Dynamic-programming is a method of solving multi-stage problems in which decisions at one stage become the conditions governing the succeeding stages. The application of dynamic-programming to reservoirs allows them to be operated more efficiently, and this is one of the few books dedicated to this topic. It explores the strength and weaknesses of dynamic-programming before analyzing several different models in detail. This book will be a valuable reference to researchers in hydrology, water resources and engineering.

Simulation models are increasingly used to investigate processes and solve practical problems in a wide variety of disciplines eg. climatology, ecology, hydrology, geomorphology, engineering. Environmental Modelling: A Practical Approach addresses the development, testing and application of such models, which apply across traditional boundaries, and demonstrate how interactions across these boundaries can be beneficial.
• Provides a general overview of methods and approaches as well as focusing on key subject areas written by leading practitioners in the field
• Assesses the advantages and disadvantages of different models used and provides case studies supported with data, output, tutorial exercises and links to the model and/or model applications via the book's website
• Covers major developments in the field, eg. the use of GIS and remote sensing techniques, and scaling issues
• As associated website contains colour images, as well as links to www resources

With satellites to observe phenomena on the global scale, on the one hand, and intensifying international trade, scientific knowledge, empirical experience and technical assistance, on the other, the world is becoming continuously smaller. This highlights not only similarities but also contrasts between different parts of the world. Comparisons and regional analyses are needed as a basis for improved understanding of vital differences, in order to make international exchange of information and techniques more efficient, and to give more consideration to the diversity of human behavior and aspirations.
At the same time, the ever-increasing scale of environmental degradation brings into focus the close link between the hydrological cycle, which provides water to the earth’s surface, and the terrestrial ecosystems, which are fed by the water entering the plant root zone. Recent studies on ecological optimality (e.g. Eagleson 1982) are deepening our understanding of the water balances of some typical ecosystems. On the other hand, experience has demonstrated that man’s interaction with the vegetation may produce unintended effects not only on the ecosystems as such, but also on the local and even regional regime of water in streams and aquifers.

Am doing my final year project on No Fines Concrete. If anyone here has any documents, journals or any publications related to No Fines Concrete please send me the link or refer me to the web. I will be very grateful to you all engineers if you can help me with my degree project.
I need the following book. If anyone have, please provide the links. Thanks in advance.
Climate Change and Groundwater - Special Publication no 288 (Geological Society Special Publication)
Author: W. Dragoni (Author, Editor), B. S. Sukhija (Editor) | Size: aa MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Geological Society of London (May 15, 2008) | Year: 2008 | pages: 192 | ISBN: 1862392358 or 9781862392359
Hydrogeology is a topical and growing subject as the earth's water resources become scarcer and more vulnerable. More than half of the surface area of continents is covered with hard rocks of low permiability.
This book deals comprehensively with the fundamental principles for understanding the hydrogeological characteristics of rocks, as well as exploration techniques and assessment. It also provides in depth discussion on structural mapping, remote sensing, geophysical exploration, GIS, groundwater flow modelling and contaminant transport, field hydraulic testing including tracer tests, groundwater quality, geothermal reservoirs, managed aquifer recharge, and resources assessment and management.
Hydrogeological aspects of various lithology groups, including crystalline rocks, volcanic rocks, carbonate rocks and clastic formations have been dealt with separately, using and discussing examples from all over the world. It will be an invaluable text book cum reference source for postgraduate students, researchers, exploration scientists and engineers engaged in the field of groundwater development in fractured rocks.
Applied Hydrogeology of Fractured Rocks - Second Edition is thoroughly revised and extended with a new chapter, updated sections, many new examples, and expanded and updated references.

HI,
DOES ANYONE HAVE THE FOLLOWING:
Dictionary of rock mechanics in six languages German, English, French, Russian, Czech, Spanish. (Dictionnaire de mécanique des roches en six langues allemand, anglais, français, russe, tchèque, espagnol )
A retaining wall or retaining structure is used for maintaining the ground surfgaces at defrent elevations on either side of it. Whenever embankments are involed in construction ,retaining wall are usually necessary. In the construction of buildins having basements, retaining walls are mandatory. Similsrly in bridge work, the wing walls and abutments etc. are designed as retaining walls , to resist earth pressure along with superimposed loads. The material retained or supported by a retaining wall is called backfill lying above the horizontal plane at the elevation of the top of a wall is called the surcharge, and its inclination to horizontal is called the surcharge angle b
