Earlier studies have independently examined the hydrodynamic effects of either streamlining angle or vegetation density in model vegetation canopies. However, the coupled influence of these two parameters on the three-dimensional ...

Rapid urbanisation and climate change have intensified urban heat islands (UHI) and associated thermal discomfort, making accurate microclimate monitoring essential for sustainable urban development. Past research has ...

Indoor environments contain some of the largest sources of human exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). Emissions of PM2.5 can vary greatly from source to source, among different types of environments, and even among ...

To understand the resistance of laterally loaded pile groups in a slope, an experimental 1 g model study and a finite element analysis study were conducted. The parameters varied were soil shear strengths, spacing between ...

Accurate short-to-subseasonal streamflow forecasts are becoming crucial for effective water management in an increasingly variable climate. However, streamflow forecast remains challenging over extended lead times, uncertainty ...

Flash floods occur every year during the summer monsoon season in India, causing substantial damage to agriculture, infrastructure, and human life. Despite their profound implications, flash flood hotspots remain unknown, ...

Natural phenomena such as wind speed, flood levels, precipitation, and many others exhibit bounded behavior on both ends due to physical constraints. This paper introduces an alternative Generalized Double Bounded Distribution ...

Adaptation planning for water resource systems is fraught with significant challenges, arising from uncertainties associated with diverse climate change scenarios, varying model structures, and Internal Climate Variability ...

In the present study, effect of shear strain amplitude and frequency on cyclic and post-cyclic response of coal ash was investigated under simple shear conditions. A series of multistage tests on coal ash specimens including ...

Preloading with vertical drains is a well-proven ground improvement technique suitable for soft clay deposits. This technique involves installing vertical drains that cause soil remolding in the immediate vicinity of its ...
