DURATION OF RAINFALL AT HAVRE, MONTANA

A general dimensionless rainfall depth-duration-ferquency relationship

CHANGE OF SPLASH EROSION RATE IN RAINFALL DIFFERENT DURATION AND INTENSITY ON MARL SOILS

Splash erosion is recognized as the first stage in the process of erosion that results in bombardment of the soil's surface with rain drops. Two basic processes in soil erosion are the dispersion of soil particles by rain drops and the changes caused to the soil's structure, which are then moved by runoff. In this research, the effect of various rainfall intensity (60, 90 and 120 mm/hr) on the ...

Regionalisation of Rainfall Duration in Victoria for Design Flood Estimation Using Monte Carlo Simulation

Design flood estimation is often required in hydrologic practice such as design of hydraulic structures and flood plain management. In flood estimation, use of rainfall runoff models is frequently adopted which convert selected rainfall events into the corresponding streamflow events. In Australia, runoff routing model is frequently adopted as the preferred method of rainfall runoff modeling. T...

Influence of Ground Motion Duration on the Structural Response at Multiple Seismic Intensity Levels

This paper aims to investigate the effects of motion duration on the structural seismic demands, seeking potential correlations between motion durations and structural responses at several seismic intensity levels. Three seismic intensity levels with 100years, 475years, and 2475years earthquake return periods (RPs) are first considered for correlation computations. Spectrally matched ground mot...

Effects of Rainfall Intensity and Duration on the First Flush from Parking Lots

Urban stormwater with large impervious (paved) areas often produces runoff with a variety of contaminants. Although southern California is among the most urbanized coastal areas in the United States, the effect of rainfall variations on washoff efficiency of contaminants from pervious and impervious surfaces is largely unknown. The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of varying rai...
